I found the penguin fleece!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I was in our local wal mart last night buying groceries and passed by the fabric dept after 5 o'clock when no one is there working when I looked and saw a bolt wrapped still in the plastic and thought, mmmm that looks likes penguins. So I investigated and sure enough it was a 10 yard 60 in wide bolt for $4.44 a yard. Wow was I excited. Now to find some one to scan me a ticket. After having someone paged without any luck the employee that paged came back and I said I don't want it cut I want it all, he said I can do that. It scanned $25 for the whole bolt, I said that's not right it should be $44.40 he said it must be on sale, I said I should hug your neck.....I paid for it and went home, YEA I am a happy Nonnie and the kids will get penguins throws.

And the time I cut two yards myself and then took the bolt and the piece to the checkout resulted in another 45 minutes waiting-----------for what I don't know.
