    Default Shopping Spree

    I went to Joann's Fabric yesterday, and spent quite a bit of money on fabric and things. I needed more backing fabric and batting for the king quilt, which is almost 1/2 quilted now. I am at a point that I need to add borders to my Day and Night quilt, which I am very pleased with so far. I hope to get out there today to work on both more. I just haven't been able to do much these last few weeks. I saved quite a bit, though, because all of the fabric I bought was on sale, the batting was 1/2 off, and I had a 50% off coupon for the highest priced non-sale item. I think I saved $70, so that tells you how much I spent! I am good to go for awhile, but have more red to wash.

    I do that at JoAnne's all the time.....love it when I save almost as much as I spent..makes me feel better about spending the money and I always load up on batting when it is on sale...always have some on hand just in case! Good job!

    Hey you ladies from down under should open a Joann's franchise over there. You'll be rich and everyone else will get what they need for the famous "50% off coupon" and everyone will be happy as a tick on a hound! I'm sure you could get paid in Fabric, notions, and batting! LOL Ahh, forgive me, I haven't slept yet and I'm getting wackier than bat poop! Not to mention silly! Think about it girls....it could be good for Aussie Quilters everywhere. They could make pilgrimages to your Joann's like people here make pilgrimages to MSQC! They would all love you, like we all love the Doans. LOL Ahh I love it when I make myself laugh. I know, I know, Jan...Take a NAP! Love you, Jan L.
