    I went to Joann's on Sat on my way into Atlanta; couldn't really focus because store is in state of remodeling and it was hard to find stuff....bought a whopping $5 worth.....had read that Hancocks had a 60% off weekend sale and since I was going into ATL and would fairly near a Hancocks I decided to hold off. Went to Hancocks and was most disappointed.....sale was 60% off on Sunday and Monday ! My intown schedule wasn't going to allow me to go back on Sun.....

    However, the store was very well organized, well lit and seemed to be well stocked....I just can't buy unless it is on sale at a substantial discount.....

    I was surprised that I didn't see much else but that's okay. Just wondering what the rest of you thought of the sale.

    Have a great day, friends :D

    I also saw that tutorial and bought the ruler. Hope it works like the video shows!

    I hope to be able to get there tomorrow. I need some batting and I can wander in a fabric store for a very long time, just looking, thinking and planning. I can do the same thing on-line but at least at the store I get a bit of exercise! LOL

    I went on Saturday and got 1 5/8/yds of fusible fleece for Bow Tucks Purses and found the book Redwork with a Twist. Also some black and white thread. That was it.

    I went today and they had a power outage so I couldn't shop, but everyone that was waiting to get checked couldn't. I left before it got ugly, they were pretty mad.

    I shopped online and got 3 two yd. pieces of material for $3.99 a yd (was reg. 7.99) and a king sized warm and natural batting. I don't make quilts that big but with 50% off it was only $20 and I can get at least 2 throws and 2 baby quilts out of it...so I'm happy

    If anyone needs an Accuquilt "Go", they had them on sale for $199. That is a lot less than I gave for mine. Now if they will run the dies on sale again for 25% off that may be a good buy. The dies are just to expenses.
