    I've purchased these over the past several days for a variety of projects.

    First, fabric for bookmarks kids will be interested in. Plus, I'll use lots of these once I find out what my students' interests are. There's a close up of the words on the one... how perfect is that for a bookmark back? :lol: These are all from Joanne's.

    These two are from a fabric place at a huge craft sale, called the Windmill (http://www.thewindmill.com/). I went this past Saturday and today.

    This one is to make into pillow cases for my daughter for Christmas. She loves to camp/backpack. Only $5 a yard.

    This one is for a wall hanging for my in-laws. My mil asked if I'd make a wall hanging for a bare spot. Since they make wine and are Italian, I thought this might be fitting. :wink: I hope she likes it. I'll check before I use it.

    I thought you'd like to see the dish towels I bought at The Windmill.

    For my mil...

    For my daughter, who's hoping to be out of a dorm and into her own apartment next semester.

    And for me. :wink:

    I think my fabric from Bonnie Blue's sale, for the borders and back of hubby's CW quilt are due in tomorrow. I'll post those when they come. Although, I start back to school tomorrow (students start Thursday) so it might take a bit.
