Fabric Finds

 Hello, my name is Katie and I've been buying fabric

for 6 days.  While the husband has been away I've

been hunting for fabric deals on line.  

 While I do enjoy all the e-mails I receive with various projects

and sales I also belong to several Facebook quilting groups.

These ladies know a lot and some of the quilts are out of this

world ... but in saying that these ladies also share info

on fabric sales.  While lurking in one of the group

a few days ago I spotted a post that read JoAnn's has a 

coupon for 75% off fat quarter bundles.  She showed her

mounds of fabric bundles and I immediately had to find the

coupon.  As you can see I did, I went, and I bought.  Now this isn't

the best quality fabric but it is perfect to try out new
patterns for quilts to donate to Outreach.  I started one late last night

which I'll post tomorrow once I get it sewn together.  

 The latest on-line purchases.

 I already used the cherry fabric for the border of a quilt

I finished last night.

 Additional temptation - they put in a catalog.  I have to say

Hancock's of Paducah has almost an immediate turn-around

on orders.  With free shipping [Fed-X] and no tax that's a deal.

 One of the fabrics in this collection is on back order.

 I finished making up the train quilt also last night.  It was

pretty simple with just one border all around.  Picture tomorrow.

 I love everything about this fabric and I may need

to hold on to it for some time before I cut it.

I still have a two orders of fabric that I'm waiting for.  One

is from a place called Marshall's Dry Goods someplace

out west.  Their website [at least for me] was extremely slow

and painful which took me over 2 hours to go through the

sale fabric.   I doubt if I will place an order through them again.  

...

For the rest of the day I'll be doing a little laundry and

general cleaning with some sewing tossed in for fun.

Wilson gets home on Saturday late afternoon.  When we talked

last night for a few minutes [the cell connection at

Bryce was awful] he mentioned he only took a few hundred

photo's.  Today they are driving about 2 hours to

Mt. Zion National Park and tomorrow they should

be in Salt Lake City.  He's ready to come home.
