OK. I was out of diet coke so I went up to the local quickie mart to get some, and might as well fill up with gas as long as I'm there, and oh look - there's a girl selling girl scout cookies on the spot. While filling gas I'm listening to a book on tape and it's at a really good part so I decide to ride around a bit more to listen to the end of the chapter and my car just automatically drove to the LQS - well might as well stop in just to say hi and see what's new.

Look what 'fell' into my basket.

1 yard each of the three batiks in the upper left. The two in the upper right are 1 + yard "finish the bolt 15% off", four along the middle are 4 different fat quarters (2 of each fabric), and this is the first panel I've ever bought it my life but it was only 2/3 yard and it screamed "thread paint me!!" which I've always wanted to try so this is a perfect practice piece.

Not shown is a pattern for a jacket I bought that they had on display.

Forgive the lens cap :)

And yes, I bought some GS cookies too. 2 boxes of tagalongs that I won't share with my husband :)

Some great stuff fell into your basket! And the butterfly does scream thread painting. Have fun.

No, but if she had the "Thank you berry munch" I'd have bought two boxes of those too :)

Hey,you can't just stop an audio book in a good part. That is exactly what I would have done. Great choices.
