    Boy, am I happy!!! and excited :-) :-) :-) Bought 17 3/4 yards of fabric for not even $4.00 a yard!! Of course it's for my...hum...what's the word? STASH :thumbup: I actually went in to check out fabrics for a wedding quilt I plan to do next. The couple are members of the Washoe Indian Tribe and I want to do an appropriate pattern and colors. Any suggestions would be appreciated. As you can see, I didn't come out of the store with what I had intended to purchase. That just means another trip! Darn :thumbup: :thumbup:

    Those are all beautiful. I would keep those for myself and get something else for the bride & groom.

    seeing other people's fabric purchases always makes me smile, as I know I am not alone. Have fun with it, even if it takes a while to cut into, You have it! :thumbup:

    I like them all, but especially the stars on blue and the purple.

    Great selection. "Like many cultures, the Indian culture takes pride in handmade wares. Give something personal that you created. Sew a blanket, wall hanging or quilt. Avoid the solid whites and black."
