It would be fun to go shopping with you to Joann's but not sure yet if I can go as I sold a quilt to someone and they haven't paid for it yet. Been thinking of taking a swing up to St Cloud for a day and then go east over to Blaine and some other fabric stores that I know of.

I also had a 5.00 off coupon for Ace Hardware so off I went...I love coupon shopping.
I hit the jack pot w/ bais tape & patterns that were on clearance.

i am wondering what is a Bow Tuck tote :?:

You can just sign up at the registers...they send booklets with great coupons a couple time a month...You have to get on their mailing list.

JoAnn's, yep, I was on line there about an hour ago, was planning on spending 40.00 for charms and ended up with a 100.00 worth (of course that was the sale pricing, so I should feel good, right! LOL)
Good deals.

I just came home from our JoAnn's and could not believe that store! I thought I was in a junk shop! Nothing was straight, fabric hanging out everywhere, boxes of half opened items all over the aisles. It was a mess! Made me feel bad so I bought the muslin I needed and got out. And as always, someone was having trouble with a coupon!! I just wish I had an alternative.

My local Joann's used to be like that so I stopped shopping there. I couldn't pass up the bargins everyone here was getting so I took a chance last week and went. I was pleasantly suprised that it has changed for the better, must have a new manager.

We have a Jo-Ann in our city that is very neat although it is a smaller one. I recently went to one in another town, because it was a nice big one, and it was a mess like you said. I couldn't believe the way the bolts were put back on the shelves and everything was just messy. I went to a Hancocks once that was a mess and I never went back. I won't go to that other Jo-Anns either. I just went to Maine and was at some beautiful Local Quilt Shops.

Hmmm.... may have to stop after work, there is one across the street. I need some fleece anyway. Making some xmas charity quilts and found that kids love it when fleece or minky is used as the backing for their quilts.

Here is the fabric I bought for me. I have already taken my sisters to her , but it was the same amount. Just different fabric. We can trade around if we want.
