Like A Kid In A Candy Store (Squeal)

Filed under: Crafty — Joy @ 7:30 pm

So Thursday I ventured to a local fabric store that I have only allowed myself to go to one time before and that was with the rule that I was not allowed to buy one single thing. Brad sent me Thursday as a treat with a bit of spending money and I was so giddy just like a little kid in a candy store! It was pretty much torture for the kiddos but even though they were having a terrible time I was having enough fun for us all! The store was having a super sale (buy two get one free (yards that is)) plus on top of their sale if you spent $25 you got to fill a bag with their scraps and it was your pick (as many as you could fit in the bag). Oh boy oh boy oh boy! I spent about an hour and a half at the store (the kiddos were dying)! I ended up with some Heather Ross fabric from her Lighting Bugs And Other Mysteries line as well as from her Lightning Bugs line both by Free Spirit. I am planing on making some fall outfits for the kiddos with the fabric. Onto the scrap pile! There were some terrific scraps to go with those that I already received. I was able to get a lot of incredible scraps including some great Amy Butler, vintage reproductions, Joel Dewberry and SO much more! My creative juices are really flowing now! I am excited to start creating!

  2. Yep! This is the store Becca! Bring your wallet! It is really worth the money though; there are definitely prints that you cannot find anywhere else!
