Thanks to the hugely helpful response I recently received, I have begun checking the In Search Of area before I check anything else. It's one of the most important ways we can help each other!
In my case, I had bought fabric for what I thought would be a queen-size quilt. As it developed, tho, it became clear that I should enlarge the project and make matching quilts for 2 twin x-long beds. While I had no trouble buying additional batiks for the highlight fabrics, I discovered that Jo~Ann had discontinued the background fabric (that they'd carried forever).
After significant panic, I posted my need in the In Search Of section, and LO AND BEHOLD, another QB member offered me 1 1/2 yards of the fabric at a reasonable price! She saved my project!
I am eager to pay it forward and hope all of you will join me!
