    Always check the bin - even for decorator fabric. I use those to piece placemats and table runners. The decorator fabric patterns make beautiful items.

    Yes, and sometimes you are so glad you did.

    Oh yes! Just like a yard sale, you never know what you might find. I even found some goodies in a free box of fabric at a local yard sale last weekend.

    I used to say I was the remnant queen----I look there before I look at the bolts. Many times I find remnants that I like but it's not a lot, maybe a little less than a yard, and I use those for bindings.

    Always check the remnant bins. Found two pieces yesterday for a total of $2.62. One is a little over 1/4 yard and the other is 3/4 yard.

    In quilting do you ever find you have a change of mind on how you feel about a color?
