have to tell you.
went to a parkwide mobile home sale and there was a lady with "bolts of fabric"...salivating here from car acting innocent.
casually walk over to inspect the prices. full bolt $4.00 whole thing.
partial bolt $2.00 whole thing. I started piling what I can use as backings on the shelter quilts on her table and she says they are all only $2.00 whole bolt...grabbed more...not stupid. think I got 14 bolts $28.00...not bad. some of it is perfect for the older foster kid quilts. doing the happy dance
