Ok, so I can't really pass up a bargain, even though I really shouldn't be wasting *cough* -investing- my money on fabric.
These are some of my most recent purchases:
These fabrics are for a quilt for my brother's son, who should be born in March, I think. I will eventually get around to this one.

These two fabrics are for the border and backing of my D9P, which I have finished the top for! yay!

I picked up this christmas fabric for 50 cents... it's a bit less than a meter, and the solid colours on the side were 2 bucks a meter.

I'm not sure what I'm going to do with these two, but I think they're gorgeous together so I bought them. Heck, at 5.99/m, I can't really go wrong, right?

These are going to be another D9P with the birds, I think it's ging to be soo cute!

This is giraffe printed chenille, it's so soft it practically melts in my hands!!!! It's going to cover my sofa throw pillows

Oh ya, all the solid coloured fabric was 2 bucks a meter.
I forgot to take pics, but I got another piece of really thick chenille for a buck fifty for over 2 meters because it was "damaged" -basically it was a bit dirty, came right out in the wash!!!!
Yikes, the pics are huge, sorry!

In-store Canadian, eh, I own some of that stuff, too. My first quilt used that same Winnie-the-Pooh and I fussy-cut the pictures to make block centers. It's kind of fun to see what someone else will do with the same stuff, so be sure to post pictures!
