November Secret Pal Sign Up Closed
#702
I went shopping the other day for some fabric in colors that my SP likes and I think I did good. I was at Joann's and suddenly it hit me how to make the most of my money. I looked for fabric that were in colors that my SP likes and were pretty and had very little left on the bolt. On the ones that had a little over yard left I got a half yard and asked for the rest as at remnant price. And on the ones that had a little under 2 yards I asked for a yard and the rest as remnant. Remnants are 50% off. So basically I got some fabric for me at full price and some for my SP at remnant price. The only problem is since it is the end of the bolt after I cut a half yard of each for my Sp it may be very wrinkled. Do you think that I should starch and iron it or just fold as neat as I can and explain why it is so wrinkled? And the best part is that I am still under budget.

Robyn sounds like your doing good on the shopping. I'm, sorry your in such pain so much of the time. Your just so young to be feeling so bad.When I get fabric that is the end of the bolt or that's been packed for a while I spray it with just plain water. Not everyone likes the stiffness from the starch.If it's for me sometimes I use starch.Mary

Ok, trying this again with a smaller picture. My question is, now that I have made this picture smaller (I'm not using a "good" picture), will the size change affect the picture when it is printed? Or do I have to go back and make it big again when I print it for my quilt journal?

I'm thinking that I am giving up until I get the whole picture thing figured out! Has anyone noticed that Mary (who didn't have pics until last week) is pumping them out like crazy?!? Good work, Mary, and I like your machine cover.
Robyn, liked the BooBoo comment! Don't you love when you get good deals?
I have to check the USPS site...my SP should have gotten her package today, or at the latest tomorrow. I am early - holy cow!
