sewingsuz: Way to go with using your stash! Please share pictures with us.

Unicorn Quilts: I agree with better used than sitting.

Iceblossom: I agree it is our responsibility to help lessen their moving load. ❤️ I’m glad you are getting your stash put in usable and stackable boxes. I, also, love the way you share your knowledge with others along with some fabric.

juliasb: If you buy the fabric and finish the quilt, it won’t go to UFO land somewhere down the line. 🤷‍♀️

Irishrose2: Good question about shipping vs mileage. My son always mentions time spent too. I ordered quilt batting from a place in the northern part of the state. I really didn’t like the shipping cost but it’s a 5 hour drive one way so shipping won out for now.

Well, I actually made 2 stops at my LQS today. When I went to pick up my bobbin holder, I noticed clearance signs. I asked about the clearance fabric and that was a mistake. 🙂. 11.49 - 11.99 dollars per yard fabric was $5 per yard unless I purchased everything on the bolt which reduced all of it to $3 a yard. I didn’t have much time but I picked 2 bolts which was a total of 10 yards. Then I stopped on my way home from visiting my son and 14 month old grandson and bought 15 yards more. 🤷‍♀️ So 25 yards for $75 was a great deal. I do have plans for some of it already.

I told the employee at least you won’t need to move the 5 bolts and she said she probably sold 5 more bolts after I left this morning. 🙂
