We hear so many stories about shoppers not being aware of their surroundings. Happened to a neighbor as she was unloading a shopping cart - someone walked by and took her purse. Just remember that not everyone is as good a citizen as we are.

That is just NUTS!!! What is the matter with people? Glad to hear you are ok, though. I order a lot from Connecting Thread - nice fabric and very good prices and equilter.com - they have a wonderful variety!

Fabric Depot.com has their Batics on sale...Hoffman and several others for 35% off through Monday, also some Moda and RJR. I bought 6 yards of Kauffman off white for $24.00 and had a coupon for 10% off so I got a good deal. The Web code for the 10% is WEB11009...type that in the instruction box when checking out.

Thanks every one for the encouragement! I do have the receipt and the fabric hasn't shown up yet.. There was one camera but.. wouldn't you know it isn't working??? I believe she knew exactly what she was getting and the shop owner believes it too. I'm going to check out some online shops... thanks for the info Gabs. Hugs

If you will let me know what kind of fabric you need I may have some to contribute. Would be glad to do it.

I hope that they catch her. I am so sorry that this has happened to you.

Oh Mannnnnnn! That stinks! At least you didn't get hurt. A friend of mine had her purse stolen out of her hands from a moving car and got pulled to the ground trying to hold on.

Did you have a rotary blade in with your purchases? Maybe she will cut her fingers.

I do hope you were able to report it to the police.
I'm sure the chance of recovering it is slim, but maybe the are had cameras that can possibly be helpful.

I am so sorry this happened to you, but I'm glad all you lost was your fabric and that your are alright.
