Hello, again and wait until you see this deal. You won't believe your eyes. :shock: :shock:

I went to Hancock Fabrics (04/15/2011) to pick up some spray starch that was on sale. I went looking around the store like I always do, when I came to the Value Fabrics bins at the back of the store. I HAVE NEVER BOUGHT PINK FABRIC IN THE 15 YEARS THAT I HAVE BEEN SEWING :!: :!: :!: Not even pink fabric for my niece or her barbie dolls. I am a natural red head, and I was told that pink clashes with my hair. :lol: :lol: I found this pink tie died looking fabric for $1.95 a yard. Above the table was a $1.00 off per yard sign. Now the fabric is only .95 cents per yard :!: I had printed off a coupon that was sent to me via email. "Save 10% off everything". It included regular priced and sale priced. The coupon was good from 04/13/2011 to 04/15/2011. I also got my starch for $1.34 per bottle, instead of $1.99. Yesterday was my LUCKY DAY!!!

FINAL COST OF FABRIC: .86 CENTS PER YARD..... :thumbup:
:thumbup:

The fabric feels like a good quality. I have no idea what I will make with it. I JUST LOVED THE DESIGN AND PATTERN...

Please tell me what you think. I love to read all comments and suggestions..

:-D :-D Have a blessed day. :-D :-D

I'm not a pink person either but this is just beautiful. Bright and happy. And a great price too! Good shopping!

Great deal. I'm a redhead and I've always loved pink. Funny how things go. Blue has never been one of my favorite colors but now I just love blue quilts. So you've decided you like pink and I've decided I like blue. LOL

linda701 04-16-2011 02:22 PM

BEAUTIFUL PINK- I JUST LOVE THAT STORE.

sewingsuz 04-16-2011 02:24 PM

OH yes! Tulips! Great idea!

Tussymussy 04-16-2011 02:57 PM

It looks a glorious colour.

Fabaddict 04-16-2011 04:07 PM

gosh - jdiane - we should have stopped at Hancocks Friday. LOL

wmiller1733 04-16-2011 04:10 PM

I am a fiend at collecting fabrics that are on sale. I always buy them up at 7 yards each time, just in case I might want to use them as quilt backings, or for blocks. That is gorgeous fabric and would look awesome on a stained glass quilt (I have a one-track mind).

sewnsewer2 04-16-2011 04:11 PM

OMG I can't believe you've never bought PINK!! Pretty fabric!

Nettie Phillips 04-16-2011 04:39 PM

Very pretty fabric. Of course I love pink.

Dollysquiltingmom 04-16-2011 04:42 PM

Great haul!!!

gellybean402 04-16-2011 04:51 PM

Nice fabric! I am jealous! We don't have a Hancocks in my State :(

xsquilter 04-16-2011 04:53 PM

Ooooh, that is pretty!

Gorgeous fabric & what a fantastic deal.

olebat 04-17-2011 03:48 AM

Well done! Quilting has thrown me into many color pallets I rarely used because of just such bargains. My thought bubble reads, (It feels good. It looks good. Gotta have it. Now what can I put with it?)

Homespun 04-17-2011 03:50 AM

Looks wonderful to me---lucky you!

girlsfour 04-17-2011 04:35 AM

So I work at a Hancock Fabrics. Have never seen any starch for that cheap. Good for you!

As far as the fabric goes, I have never seen one like that! I do know that the batiks that they carry are nice though. I have bought them and they wash up well and have a nice weight to them.

Good for you!!

Tweety2911 04-17-2011 06:03 AM

Fantastic bargain and beautiful pink fabric.

Mazda 04-17-2011 06:05 AM

I love the fabric & I think pink is flattering on everybody!

justflyingin 04-17-2011 06:55 AM

I love it as well! Good job. I've found I don't have many pinks in my collection, but I do like the color.

damaquilts 04-17-2011 07:38 AM

what a great deal. I would have grabbed also. If nothing else its a good back for a quilt

nabobw 04-17-2011 08:09 AM

I like it

Tinabug 04-17-2011 08:24 AM

I just luv bargains! I think it's a batik, my first thought is a blk & white quilt with hot pink! Maybe a disappearing 9 patch use the pink as the center sq???? I made a black and white and used bright green as a center square and it looks pretty cool Have fun!

RedGarnet222 04-17-2011 08:26 AM

Wow ... What a Deal!! Have fun playing with it.

I am sorry you have spent all these years living without pink. I have always thought that a whisper soft shell pink is a redhead's most beautiful color to wear. It looks great with your skin coloring. My big sis is a natural redhead and I buy her that color in sweatshirts all the time. She loves it.

amma 04-17-2011 08:46 AM

I love it :D:D:D

smagruder 04-17-2011 10:10 AM

Lucky you. I have a nephew/wife/kids who live in Temple, a nephew/family is Salado, and a sister in Belton..... small world.

Paisleyc 04-17-2011 10:40 PM

That's a good color and pattern. You'll come up with something good I'm sure and will love quilting it because the whole time your are going to be thinking---"It only cost 86 cents a yard""oh boy, oh boy"!!!!!!!

That would make my day.

wanda lou 04-18-2011 10:50 PM

WI Rose 04-19-2011 10:15 AM

I'm not a pink person either, but I would have snatched that up also. I'm sure you'll find some great way to use it.

penski 04-19-2011 04:57 PM

Marvel 04-20-2011 01:51 PM
