Howdy y'all :c)
I've been so jealous of all the good bargains some of you seem to be so good at finding, then lucked into some great stuff myself! A couple of weeks ago I went and stayed at my ex's place for a few days to take care of my daughter while he was in the hospital and to care for him after he got out. He wanted to give me something for helping out, so naturally I said I needed fabric! He just didn't seem to want to go shopping for it with me (go figure! LOL!), so he handed me $100.00 to shop with! Our local Wal-Mart still has a fabric department, but they have just recently remodelled the store and have given the craft department half the space they had before. So they decided to mark down fabric that they can't order any more of in order to make more room. They had TONS of fabric marked down to $1.00/yard, and here I was with $100.00 cash to spend!!! They were marking down more every day, so over the course of about 5 visits I spent all of my money! I got 2 yards of most of it, a little less if there wasn't that much on the bolt of others, and as much as 5 of ones I liked the best. On top of that, I went to a yard sale that advertised "tons of fabric". It turned out to be scraps, but some of those scraps are pretty big and can definitely be used for quilts, or especially for the mug organizers I want to make for Christmas. I got all the scraps, one piece of fabric that had about 3 yards on it, and a queen-sized flat sheet to use as backing on a quilt for $3.00!!!!! Here are some pics of my purchases! Greens and oranges [ATTACH=CONFIG]212772[/ATTACH] Pinks, blues, and an Elvis Blue Hawaii panel. [ATTACH=CONFIG]212773[/ATTACH] Reds, Browns, Purples, Yellows, and 60 wide eyelet fabrics! [ATTACH=CONFIG]212774[/ATTACH] Here are some upholstery fabrics I got to make shopping tote bags out of. :c) [ATTACH=CONFIG]212779[/ATTACH] I got so many scraps for 3 bucks that I had to take 2 pictures to include all of them! [ATTACH=CONFIG]212780[/ATTACH] Here is the 2nd pic of my yard sale find. Now I've got to get busy, busy, busy!!! :c) [ATTACH=CONFIG]212784[/ATTACH] |
