I found some Mexican Bingo aka Loteria fabric at JoAnn's over the weekend. You know I will be using my coupons to get more of that fabric, but only out of solidarity for you!!! ![Smile](https://cdn.quiltingboard.com/images/smilies/smile.png)

Mine is almost finished but I've no idea whether or not "my" person even likes these colors; I'm still waiting on my person's name/info. It was sent but seems to have vanished, into cyber-space.
That being the case, I was forced to go look at fabric, as consolation. Went to WalMart, as I also needed a few groceries . . . and found just over a yard of Hot Wheels fabric, which is just what I needed, to go with the Hot Wheels flannel, I found about a week ago. Found them both, in the clearance bins . . . $2 a yard! Don't you reckon that's a sign, to keep shopping?![Thumb Up](https://cdn.quiltingboard.com/images/smilies/thumbup.png)

Thank you, so much! Just knowing this, covers me with warm fuzzies. It warms my heart, to know my great suffering will not have been in vain . . . and that as a result of my misery, more Fabric will be rescued! It'll be the Great Fabric Rescue of Texas! Actually, those warm fuzzies look a lot like dryer lint . . . but it's probably just my imagination . . . .

Wait, if I did receive my partners name... will that disqualify me to buy fabric in sympathy for your plight???

Linda,
I think not. It's all for a good cause!! We need all the rescuers we can get. You can never have "too much". In fact, I don't think that is in the quilting vocabulary. Think of it like fabric adoption, it's going to a good home.

"...and that as a result of my misery, more Fabric will be rescued!" An aha moment, I have never thought of that as a reason to purchase fabric! Light bulbs are going off, I hear sirens, oh... for joy!!!

I now have my name! YAY!!! My person's favorite colors seem to be the opposite of what I've made

My secret pals needlebook has been mailed. I hope my pal will like it?
It's packed full of goodies that I hope will bring a smile to her face. Oh, and here's another clue, My secret pal and I also are in another swap here on the QB..... Oh, and, she's nice and funny and a really good person. Hmm, I don't know if I've helped or not. I guess that could mean ALOT of people here on the board.
(cheshire cat grin, well, I don't want to make it to easy.)
