Regardless, we're glad you're back!

I actually DID have an empty suitcase.
All my clothes, not much, actually fit in my carry on. Courtney used all the room in 4 suitcases for her things. I just took my smaller suitcase and put it in my bigger one. Then packed all my findings in that. My clothes went back into my carry on. Yes, I packed lightly. Had 2 pairs of shorts, 2 pairs of jeans, 5 shirts and my undies. :) Did laundry while I was there.

Thanks all!

Yes, Izy, I had a blast buying that fabric. Who knows...you might have some scraps of that coming your way in a future box....that is IF I cut that stuff. lol

Oh, no excess charge. I'm allowed 2 suitcases at 70 pounds each. My one suitcase was 68 pounds. You should have heard the man when he took it off the bus. He was groaning....asked me what I had in it. Told him it was all fabric. lol
He asked me where my clothes were. I told him...in my carry on! :)

No Penny...I didn't get to the swap meet. Nothing there I really want. Plus, was a bit too hot, always is and didn't feel like walking around it.
They do have some nice fabric, but I preferred buying my fabric (Hawaiian) from Fabric Mart.

I bet you could! I went looking for the Hawaiian stuff like what I sent you, but all they had was black and brown colors. Didn't want that.
Oh well...maybe next time.
