I had a student teacher for 8 weeks, and this particular college pays $200 to the master teacher. Not easy money, but definitely extra money. So.... I shopped, for stuff I didn't need. :-D

Every one of these was less than $5 a yard. Pretty good, eh? ;)

The first pictures are what I bought from a local quilt shop today. They were having a buy 5 yards, get 5 free day, so I bought 10. :lol: The 10 for the deal are ALL batiks; there's one lone Moda Kansas Troubles that was on sale for $5. I added to my Moda pile and have big plans for that fabric.

I also dropped two tops with the quilter to be quilted.

The later pictures are what I've purchased from forum folks in the past weeks.

For more log cabin florals. From a forum member.

Lucky you, I love the Batiks the most.

barnbum 11-06-2010 02:30 AM

It was so much fun. :D I think anticipating the trip was equal in joy to the browsing because it's been a L-O-N-G week/months with one student in particular. I took a half Personal Day yesterday just to get some errands done--and to visit this shop. The sale was only one day--and they close at 5:00, so I never would have made it otherwise.

I've never used all three Personal Days we're given for a year... but maybe this year. I have over 140 sick days I've never used. Might need some of those too! :roll:

SuziC 11-06-2010 03:28 AM

WOW did you shop!!! I Love the florals :!:

mrs. fitz 11-06-2010 01:48 PM

Now that's putting extra cash to good use!

klgreene 11-06-2010 04:17 PM

Nice choices. I love the batik's. On the fabric you got for the log cabin floral, I have the second from the left. Have had it a while,didn't even remember what I used it for, but I made kalieoscopes with it. They are turning out really cute. I have a ways to go, but will post the picture when I'm done. So down the road look for the material. You did wonderful on all of those.

Shemjo 11-06-2010 05:20 PM

Glad you had fun shopping. Your new fabrics are lovely.

Iluv2quilt 11-06-2010 11:18 PM

All I can say is WOW, good for you!!
