    Look what I found on the way home from work.

    I stopped by Michael's and they had these FQ bundles on clearance for $1 each!!

    Of course I had to buy all that they had :thumbup:


    What do you think I should make?

    I'd love to try a bargello.....well, Im just not ready for that!

    5 FQ in each bundle!

    What a great find...how can they sell them at that price and still make a profit? Makes you wonder what the markup on fabric is?

    If clearance, then they weren't worried about profit any longer. Probably discontinuing carrying fabric. Nice find!!

    wow! our Michael's doesn't carry fabric - lucky you! How about a "rainbow" quilt?

    Those FQ's would make a perfect Bargello!

    Great find. I can't think of what you can do with it right now, but I am sure it will come to you.

    Great deal! I bought several of these bundles (greens. blues, purples and pinks) from Michael's this summer for $3.50 each (i.e. 50% off from original price) and thought I was doing really well then. You really did "score" at $1 per bundle!!!
