I found some Mexican Bingo aka Loteria fabric at JoAnn's over the weekend. You know I will be using my coupons to get more of that fabric, but only out of solidarity for you!!!

That being the case, I was forced to go look at fabric, as consolation. Went to WalMart, as I also needed a few groceries . . . and found just over a yard of Hot Wheels fabric, which is just what I needed, to go with the Hot Wheels flannel, I found about a week ago. Found them both, in the clearance bins . . . $2 a yard! Don't you reckon that's a sign, to keep shopping?

Actually, those warm fuzzies look a lot like dryer lint . . . but it's probably just my imagination . . . .
Wait, if I did receive my partners name... will that disqualify me to buy fabric in sympathy for your plight???

Linda,
I think not. It's all for a good cause!! We need all the rescuers we can get. You can never have "too much". In fact, I don't think that is in the quilting vocabulary. Think of it like fabric adoption, it's going to a good home.

I now have my name! YAY!!! My person's favorite colors seem to be the opposite of what I've made
so I now have a wonderful reason to start anew . . . and I have an idea, I'm itching to try. Hang in there, Fabric! I'll rescue you, as soon as I can!!!! I promise!!!!!

My secret pals needlebook has been mailed. I hope my pal will like it? It's packed full of goodies that I hope will bring a smile to her face. Oh, and here's another clue, My secret pal and I also are in another swap here on the QB..... Oh, and, she's nice and funny and a really good person. Hmm, I don't know if I've helped or not. I guess that could mean ALOT of people here on the board. (cheshire cat grin, well, I don't want to make it to easy.)
