A-stashing we will go...
I ran over to the fabric store today and grabbed 20+ bolts of clearance fabric. By the time the gal started cutting, I realized that, even on clearance, I couldn't afford all of it, so I narrowed it down to 12. Most of them have a vintage look to them so they'll work well for the Farmer's Wife quilt that's up next (after I finish the three WIPs I have going now). I bought 1 1/2 yards of 10 and 2 yards 2 of them.
If you can't see it from 50 yards away on a galloping horse, it doesn't matter.

Re: A-stashing we will go...
We have a new Walmart Supercenter opening the middle of August so our old Walmart is starting to mark down their fabric. They told me yesterday that they were going to mark it all down. Theres 2 fabrics I'm keeping my eyes on...hope they get it marked down soon.

If you don't know where you're going you'll probably end up somewhere else.

I agree that they have a vintage look. They will make a wonderful quilt. I wish I would stubble upon a find like that.

When our WM was closing to move in to new super center they had a bunch of their fabrics for $1 yd. I bought 81 yds total. Minimum 2yd cuts of the many fabrics I picked out. Haven't even touched any of them yet, lol. So have fun.

Blankets wrap you in warmth, quilts wrap you in love
A quilt is something you make to keep someone you love...WARM.....
What I make with my hands, I give of my heart.

Re: A-stashing we will go...
I am a sucker for a bargain. That is my problem.
Blessed are the children of the piecemakers for they shall inherit the quilts!

Re: A-stashing we will go...
our local quilt shop is closing , so everything is 40% off - even with the discount I left almost $100 there.
This week is their last, so I'm thinking about one more trip..... {like I need more stash}
