Mother day came early!
Yesterday my daughter and I dropped in to Joanne's because she need stuff for a wedding she is in this weekend. I always gravitate to the fabric and low and behold----fat quarters are 75 cents! I have never seen them less than 99 cents. Well she came up behind me as I was drooling and trying to pick out a few and just started grabbing one from all different colors. She bought me 50 of them along with a few other quilty things I had in my arms. It totally blew me away and I love looking at these stacks of fat quarters!

That is so cool! But it isn't often that we get to buy someone something that they really want. It was probably a great thing for your daughter as much as it was for you. Sounds like a whole lot of love to me.

Don't you just love when your DD finally 'gets it'? I had been supplying my DD with baby shower quilts, burp cloths and receiving blankets for a while, never really saying anything about the cost to me (it was nice to get some of that flannelette out of my sewing room but I did have to purchase it at some point) and one day I got an email transfer that more than covered my costs. YES!! She does understand and does appreciate my efforts.

I too took advantage of their 75 cent sale! I got 25 of them, and they all seemed really nice. I've had good luck with using their FQ's. However, I was not as smart as QuiltnNan, because when I bought two at Walmart I did not ask for a price match!! Oops!!
