    I swore up and down and sideways that I was not going to buy any fabric this month and save for my Oct vacation. Well, of course, I had to have some black so went to Hancocks to look for black on black (which they don't have), but they did have a table with a lot of cottons for $1.00 a yard and then an extra 15% off total cost.

    I really like the bird fabric and the leaf fabric is not really a coordinate but seems to go with it okay.

    So for $.85 per yard I ended up with 9 yards and 2 panels for only $9.50. I guess I will skip Subway a couple of times this month.

    Great score. The birds and dots play together fabulously.
    $.85/yard. WOW! I've never been in a regular Hancocks (chain). I think the nearest one is three hours away. Maybe it's better that way. ;-)

    I don't think I could have passed up that deal either! Nothing wrong with a good old peanut butter sandwich a couple days a week! (I love both of your selections!)

    I love the birds. I would have got it too :)

    I have just convinced myself that I HAVE to quit buying more fabric and should probably destash some. This conclusion was arrived by putting all of the fabric in one place and having a room full. I am going to start by only buying for a need. For example, this week a friend announced she was leaving the company, her nickname is tiger. I had no tiger fabric in my stash, so it was a need. Wish me luck. I really fabric collecting and when I get good deals I have a hard time saying no.
