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!

Wow, what a daughter! Take her more often. No, I don't mean that. She is a wonderful person to do this for you. Good daughter.

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.

I hope you checked the quality of the ones she grabbed. Some of those fabric are really thin quality and wouldn't last long in a quilt.

Oh...that is just SO SO sweet !!! Lucky you.....and what a wonderful daughter. Hope all's well with you and yours.

Maybe I'll run over there because I need some differvt Blues and greens for a wall hanging.

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.

what a wonderful daughter and such a thoughtful act. enjoy them all. are they still on sale.

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!!
