I have just been inducted into the MEBP fan club as I had not heard of it until on this board. WOW, what I have been missing until now. My sewing room will not be without it ever again. 'Course, I did not get quite such a good bargain as you did.

I use mine with some water added and it still works fine. Of course, you probably don't need to stretch yours!

Of course, I headed to domestics first, thinking maybe I'd find a Featherweight treasure or something like that... nope, but something still calling my name...

So I wandered around, we always check for dishes to match our hard-to-match pattern... nope, not that. Looked at some cute dresses for DD ... nope, not that either.

So, I turn around to look at the beaniebabies for DD, and BAM. like 40 bottles of MEBP! Something told me to stop there first... AND I had one of the GW Customer Appreciation cards already filled, so I got 35% off my measly 1.50 price of each bottle (they are 8 oz. bottles, each with sprayer head, so I bought 15. I think I have enough for my project, plus the rest of my life. YAY!
Whee-ee-ee What a find. Good going!

I'm glad you asked, because I didn't know either.
