    Yesterday a friend and I went to the Connecting Threads Warehouse Sale in Vancouver, Washington. We didn't "need" anything but thought we'd find a few scraps at $2.96 a pound. Since we had no idea how much fabric weighs (other than husbands' complaints about the incredible burden it puts on an RV :roll: ) we apprehensively approached checkout with all we could carry. I got all this for $38!! And digging separately we spent the same amount. I was amazed at how many people were there and how friendly and cooperative they were on a really hot day.

    Sorted -- somewhat

    Oh my, it is a good thing I don't live anywhere near there. I would have no control.

    Joyce, where the heck is that store?? Or was it an "event"?

    Would love to check it out! Hope all is well with you!

    I'm so jealous of the fabric !
    Exactly what is a hot day in Washington....we've had 100 deg plus here in Ga for a 90 day stretch.....
    Wish I could find similar deal here in this area !
