I went shopping again yesterday at my favorite store that is closing. They have reduced everything down to 50% off so I needed to help them clean out their inventory. There are a couple pieces of fabric that I bought at another shop at full price but they called my name...... All the fabrics I picked up are at least a yard. they had a one yard minimum cut. I'm wishing that I had picked up a little more of some of them but........I spent plenty of money on these!!!

some fancier "neutrals" a couple of these have the gold etching in them

Neutral for the stash, the top 2 ones are 2 yards each

more fabrics

Ok, so I'm starting to collect Oriental fabrics now. Pretty much the first in the collection were the pieces I bought at new years

These all (I think) have the gold etching and go well with the other orientals

I think it is so nice of you to keep going back to the quilt shop to help them clean out their inventory. What a great consumer you are!!!! :lol:

I love your neutrals the best--great stash builders.

I love frosted fabric and the ones with the gold threads. How do the threads look once they are washed? All so pretty :D
