Score!

It is no surprise that I'm a fabric whore.  I'm also a yarn whore.  I love it all.  :)  Well here are a couple of pics of what I've picked up this weekend....

1. Fabric Jelly Rolls.  Have you heard of them?  They're kinda awesome for girls like me that don't have a large cutting area.  They usually come in widths of 2.5 inches and lengths of anywhere from 22 inches to 44 inches.  I found these at JoAnn's on clearance for like $7 each.  I'm so in love with the tangerine and blue combination!  I've been wanting to do a Rail Fence top for the longest time and these are too perfect! 

2. As a fabric whore, I have a few designers that I just love....Amy Butler, Riley Blake, Michael Miller....and Alexander Henry.  This is AH!  I've been obsessing over LARGE flower prints lately.  I love the colors in this print!  Do I have any idea what to do with it?  Nope, but I walked around the store for over an hour & came back to this print probably five times, then when I took it to the cutting counter this piece was tucked into the bolt like it was meant for me.  I had to get it. 

3. I've been told to go thrifting by a handful of people....well, I finally went to the Goodwill with my momma.  I was slightly....um, underwhelmed?  I did pick up these pillowcases....at $1 a piece.  At that price & lack of selection, I will probably stick with yard sales & estate sales for my pillow case/sheet purchases.  These will become some totes for Etsy this weekend :)
