My Fabric Splurge - I may have overdone it!

[ATTACH=CONFIG]375707[/ATTACH]My LQS is closing and she has 50% off everything this month. Although it makes me very sad, I was happy to take advantage of the sale. I got 2 yard cuts of most of them, a few pre-cut half yards, a jar of girly button (because I think the grand baby will be a girl) and only 1 pattern.
The 1st pic is a 4 yd cut. It is actually more burgundy and I think it will make a nice jacket.

Where are you in Wisc? Maybe you want to make a trip there if it's not too far?

I LOVE that top red feathery fabric. I have seen it used in purses with that crinkly texture stuff. It looks amazing. Great haul!

I really hate to hear about local quilt shops closing. My local shop closed yesterday. Glad you got some good deals though.

What a beautiful stash. Sorry your LQS is closing. And you are right that first fabric will make a beautiful jacket (I made a purse out of that same fabric).
