I saw several laddies from
our group purchase those magnetic pin cushions.
Lots of Home Decor
The home decor
section seemed a football field long. Rolls of beautiful decorator
fabrics in every color imaginable. They also carry bolt ends from Pottery Barn,
and some of the top furniture designers. These are nicer more expensive
fabrics so bring your measurements as you will not want to guess and buy
too much or worse yet too little.
I found some neutral color
wool sweater knit material that was "Yummy". Browns, camels and greys,
(picture). They even had hard to find Alpaca wool, though at 99.00 a yard I could bring myself to get any. I'm sure the price was fair and there was an additional 20% off all
wools so that would bring it down to nearly under $80.00. But I didn't have my pattern and I am just too practical to just buy
two yards not knowing if it would be enough or too much.
They had beautiful wool suiting too, some wonderful greens.
If
you go be sure to check out the 50% off shelves on the left when you go
into the store. I did find a few wonderful pieces, many there just
because the bolt is down to a few yards
I bought a fabulous piece
of copper and black knit that I will make a shell out of. While in line
to pay for it another friend loved it too and cut a few yards for
herself. The cost was $7.99 for a yard and a quarter.
