Noticed you live in Lake Orion - what JoAnn's do you go to?
Glad you found something you liked and can use.

P.S. Love your Avatar - cool pattern

Oh boy! Things are changing again! I asked my daughter on Sunday which of the two fabrics she liked better and she chose the first one. Now, what!? Well, decided to go on the JoAnn's Web site and see what I could find. Would you believe that fabric JoAnn's told me they couldn't get is stillon the Web site and is on sale??!! I ordered what I need and got confirmation that it would be sent. Keeping fingers crossed!!
Anyway, the guy I am making it for stopped by today and I showed him both fabrics, he likes the first one too. Did not care for the 2nd choice so I reeeealllly hope I can get it. JoAnn's web site said it would be delivered in 7 - 10 days.
Can't help wonder why they couldn't get it for me by ordering at the store though and why it would take them 2 - 6 weeks IF they could even get it... strange.

First fabric for backing - ordered more

I agree sometimes things happen for a good reason in the end.

I have that fabric. I just used it on my sewing tool caddy and pin cushion set and have some leftover. I love pink flowers.

Gotta love the happy endings. So glad everything worked out the way it did for you. That's a wonderful story.
