    The WMs in my area are all phasing out the fabric dept and we quilters are very disappointed. The last store went to 5o% off and there is little cotton left.

    Wow, $1 a yard for 100% cotton fabric? Geesh, if I wasn't buried up to my *** in snow and wind, I would drive the hour to my W-mart fabrics and see what the y have.

    I, too, added to my stash today. Wish I had your restraint!
    I got 21 1/2 yards for $23.00at my local W-Mart. Now my problem is deciding which of my new pretties I want to use first! (Did I go overboard?)

    Don't think you went overboard at all. You can't beat the price and hopefully everything will find it's way into a quilt.

    I too bought fabric at WM. I got about 40 plus yards over a 3 day period for 1.00 a yard, I think I got about 9 different colors and prints. I got some of the same prints and colors you got. The last time I went to WM my DH was with me. I picked up 2 bolts that were marked 1.00 a yard and asked him how much can I get, he said how much do you need and I said I don't need any of it I just want it. He just laughed and walked away, so I got 5 1/2 yards of each. the fabric was so pretty. I was like a kid in a candy shop.
