I don't think the corn will work for quilting *L* Just kiddin' ya..
I think I have enough stash to last me 10 years...that is if what's old is going to come back in style again..which it seems to be doing..
I noticed the other day that some of the fabrics at our LQS seem thinner to me...their quality seems to be a cheaper grade of cotton..I think everyone is cutting corners. I did get some nice blue fabric down in the basement sale for $5 a yard. Wish I had more $$ to have spent that day. They had some nice fabrics on the clearance table. The quality of those ones seemed better than the new stock that is higher priced. I got an email from the other LQS that they are making room for a new shipment and have fabric clearanced down to $3 a yard. I plan to go check it out this weekend when my DD & go to town.
Happy Stitchin' Linda B.
