I'm going tomorrow for rotary blades, and that's it. Can't pass up 50% + an extra 20%. But that's it!

I'm going right after chores tomorrow! I have my eye on the 100 spools of Gutterman thread and some fusible interface!

Funny you should ask.....
We don't have JoAnn's in Canada, but I've been hanging on to a gift card for quite some time. My DH is in California visiting family, so I sent him with my gift card and a very definite list. I even went on their web site and printed pictures of what I wanted AND wrote a description. He chose black Friday to shop at JoAnn's. He tells me there were 7000 women in the store, although I do think he might have exaggerated. Probably because he hates to shop. He called this evening to proudly tell me my list was complete. Remember how specific I was? Well, he couldn't find anything actually on my list, but was happy to report that he found close substitutions. Instead of Ironslide, he bought an ironing board cover. Instead of 505 spray, he bought June Taylor. It goes on, close but no banana. Poor guy. He's happiest alone in his workshop with only the deer to keep him company all day and there he is in a small house full of various and sundry family gathered together. In the midst of the background chaos, his wife is yelling over the phone "take it back, take it all back, I don't want any of it, don't you dare bring it home". Maybe my SIL can use the stuff. Right now, I don't care! But, reading about the great things everyone else picked up makes me jealous!! |
I took advantage of their last sale & bought 7 Simplicity patterns for $1 each. :)

BTW I am hitting the early bird at Joann tomorrow...hoping to get that big plastic storage unit with the drawers for my sewing room Margie :) |
I got tons of stuff!! There was a Gutterman thread think left--and I got some fabric--and 7 yds of fusible webbing, 12 sheets of that fabric to print photos on, antlers for Mazie :lol: , little bags to "wrap" my students gifts, and Christmas decorations for my daughter to use in her house at college and some for my son's girl to use in her new trailer! What fun!! :D :D
