DH took me to a local Flea Mkt today. While walking around, I found a 1/2 yd piece of Easter fabric..colored eggs on a white background for 50 cents! Then when we got home the panels I've purchased had started coming in. I got a Soaring Eagle panel that is so awesome, a Who Gives a Hoot panel with owls for my MIL & a 2 yd piece of Around Town to make my young GS's a mat to play cars on. I am so excited!! I can't start them yet though because a friend gave me some fabric from her recently deceased MIL & I plan to try to make her husband a lap robe from the pieces, but have to get it done before they leave the area again. I'm so excited & just had to share!!

We like the Eustis Flea Market at the Lake County Fairgrounds. It's got a little of everything & is just big enough for us. You can find the neatest stuff in the most unexpected places & they have great produce there too! Webster is too big for us. Didn't really care for it. You're not that far from us here.
