After reading this thread I don't feel guilty anymore about the 18 yards or so I bought this morning at Jo-Anne's...for $2 a yard! Had to be careful of the quality in picking through the bolts on sale 50% off, but with my extra 20% off coupon (from JA's email) just had to look! Even though I have no room to store the fabric I already bought this year, this was just too good a deal for the Project Linus quilts I aim to practice on before deciding on my first "for me" project.
BTW, I've seen some really nice modern-style quilts on various blogs lately, and some of the fabrics used in them go for $25+ a yard, U.S. $$! :shock: No, I won't be making those.... :-(
