:D :D :D The fabrics were sampler packs of fat quarters in their clearance section-- just a bit over $1.00 each which I thought was a real bargain!
At my regular "quilt" shop (it isn't...its just a Bernina dealer with some nice quality fabric), a yard will usually go for $8.95-$9.95 for their "better" quality. They don't have many sales..I shop there some to support them and hope that they will stay open. Its the only nice quality fabric store within 1 hour driving distance for me :cry: But...I DO LOVE to shop on the internet!! :oops:

You must be RICH! I only spent $32 today. :wink: :lol: :wink: :lol:
I LOVE what I got. It was in my hands last time I went to this shop, but I put it back--so I went back in today and got it with 2 solids to match!
I have to stop taking girlfriends to this place. :roll:

Love the colors and designs of those fat quarters. Fabric shopping is addictive (whether in person or on the net!!) Went to a new quilt shop on Saturday in Louisianna, MO with my hubby, he is very indulgent of me and quilting. In fact I usually spend more $$ when he is around. He is very good at coordinating colors and will tell me to get plenty to make a quilt. I would be happy with a 1/2 yard or so but I usually buy 2-3 yards if I really like it as well in case it might be used for a border. I really am the lucky one!!!
