    I call it "fondling the fabric."

    I wonder if someone could post a picture of these totes. I have no idea what you are talking about and would like to show the better half a picture so he could pick one up for me - if I like it, of course. Housebound for a while! Thanks!

    If the tags and prints are the same as Joanns I bet they are same ones that Joanns yanked off their shelves some time ago. They had just started getting all their fat quarters from China and they were not cut on grain and several inches short in length and width. There was a huge customer revolt so every one was pulled from the shelves until a new supply arrived. I bet Big Lots bought them all because that is how they obtain their merchandise. They buy up refurbished, discontinued, close outs and things that have had package changes. That's just what Big Lots does.
