Well,I went shopping for containers/bins for my sewing room and while there,had to run by the fabric department.Here is my find, for today.I got a total of 26 1/2 yards for a sum total, with tax included $26.23 !-I paid from 74 cents to $1.11 a yard, at Walmart. Look at the red stripe on the lower right,some of this could be used at times beside christmas.Where's my shopping Cutie?!!!

My sister is traveling, so I told her to check out the Walmarts on her trip.I recently got her back into sewing and she is making a christmas quilt.Hope she gets some and you too!-Toogie

My room is a mess again while I am sorting, so it will be a while before I have any fun.

I thought so too, Sue, and now you understand why I have so much fabric! At 'dirt cheap' prices, I can't pass it up.....Now why do you think people started that expression,dirt cheap? Dirt/Land is not cheap!-LOL

by toogie 18 Jan 2014

I am trying! I really didn't NEED this but was too good to pass up.I figured my sister may want some or all, as she is doing a christmas quilt and has been looking for xmas fabrics at a good price.

Don't you just love those cardinals, and the poinsettias and those trees are really pretty opened up.

Nice selection and they all blend well together. I do like the leaping deer but it would be hard to choose just one.

by toogie 18 Jan 2014

Isn't that the truth! I think that is part of my problem, when it's that good,I can't pass it up, now really, who would? I guess that is why I have so much.I have folded and packed a great deal today and I am tired.I still have a mess, but just found out I won't have the grands Monday, so maybe I will get it back in order, before I go back to school Tuesday.

by toogie 18 Jan 2014

Yes, because if I can't use it somebody can! I think at this point I will not live long enough to use it all, and I am not planning on leaving for quiet a while!

by toogie 18 Jan 2014

Thank you....the first step to recovery is admitting you have a problem.I admit I am addicted to a good fabric sale.-LOl

Toogie I think many of us have fabric addictions, currently I am trying to use some of my fabric up and not add too it. I have not bought any fabric in a months and boy have I been tempted

by toogie 19 Jan 2014

I am going to try to behave this year.I am so blest and now that I am getting organised,I can shop at home-LOL

by toogie 18 Jan 2014

I hope I do too, but I may offer some to my sister.I recently got her started sewing again and she is piecing a christmas quilt.She recently retired from nursing and needed an outlet, something to occupy her time, so I suggested quilting.She really is doing quiet well.She already has done 17 blocks and really hasn't been at it that long.I am very proud of her.

by toogie 18 Jan 2014

I did get some containers but they are 3 drawer,on wheels.I am folding my fabrics like Patricia109 said and I am surprised how little room it takes.I have gone through a lot today,but I quit for tonight,I am tired.Before you go to hobby Lobby again, go on-line to their web site.You can print a 40% off coupon, to use on one item, anytime.Was it you that said,you wanted to go shopping with me? Someone said,but I forgot who, that's why I showed my ticket.-LOL

by sewilso 19 Jan 2014

I didn't say that but I want too also. I did read the comment on this page however, and I think we all want to go shopping together. hahaha! The stores won't know what hit them. Now I want to know how Patricia 109 folds her fabric. Is that here somewhere? Thanks for everything all of you guys!

by toogie 19 Jan 2014

I made another post, with photos, here in CHAT, with instructions Patricia109 gave.

by toogie 18 Jan 2014

Some of our Walmarts just carry the precut,like you say.They were threating to close all the fabric departments and we all called 1-800-walmart and complained.Don't know if that's why or not but we got our FD back.

by toogie 18 Jan 2014

Saves on buying wrapping paper every year and you don't have the mess when they are all opening up.My sister used to do that,but then her kids would take their sacks home and she wouldn't get them back, for the next year.Speaking of Valentines, that's a good idea to use the reds. I don't know why they reduced some of them because like you, I thought they weren't just for christmas.

by dailylaundry 18 Jan 2014

Thank goodness, my kids don't take my Christmas bags home. But my daughter does make them herself. I also make and give many away. Each year I always make more. If you just made two or three a week - you are more than set for the holiday. Great Buy!! Laura

by toogie 18 Jan 2014

Doesn't it make you feel good when you get a good deal.Wasn't bad for your panel either.

by toogie 18 Jan 2014

Maybe if I start now with christmas.....but then,I say that every year, and put it off.Seems like when christmas is over,you don't want to sew/emb christmas again.
