    Default Christmas fabric score!

    So many Christmas fabrics look not-so tasteful to me, so I was pleased to find these at G'will: total of about 11 yards for $10! And this printed vest caught my eye with the birch tree fabric - think I will incorporate the animals and the birch trees into a manly lap quilt with some muted plaids. Cheap fun!

    Fantastic purchase! I never thought of shopping at Goodwill for fabric!

    Definite score! I love the idea you have for the vest panel and the matching birch tree print. Toss in some solid grays and you will have a real winner.

    The ones on the left look much nicer than what i saw out this year. Love the blue one at the top, especially.

    hugs,

    Nice! Especially the wolves and the trees. I don't know if our Goodwill has fabric. When my husband goes in, I wait in the car. Guess I'll need to check it out next time!

    Nice find. These are the sort of Christmas fabrics I gravitate to. Your planned manly quilt sounds great.
