Fabric Jackpot.
Yesterday on Twitter I mentioned that I hit the jackpot at a new-to-me fabric store. I didn’t just hit the jackpot, I nailed it.
This store is my new favorite secret place. Like a secret garden, but with fabric for $2/yd.
My own little paradise.
I may have come home with just a few fabrics…
I’ve seen most of these fabrics in stores for $10-20 so even Justin was impressed with my $2/yd purchases. I mean when a guy is impressed, I know I did well. Some of the fabrics will be used in our house, and some are for a fun project down the road.
Almost as much fun as getting great fabrics for cheap is having a secret store to throw into conversation. Poor Justin has no idea just how much this is going to come up in our conversations. I almost feel bad for him.
Justin: “Do you want eggs for dinner?”
Me: “Umm, secret store?”
Justin: “I married an idiot.”
Me: “Duh.”
What about you guys, have you ever found a hidden gem in your city that you wanted to keep to yourself?
P.S. There’s still time to enter the giveaway! I’ll announce the winner on Monday!
Um. You must share. It is a necessity!
Those are really cute fabrics! My mom is a quilter in Japan, so I usually go to several fabric stores to get what she needs and ship or bring them home when I visit. After several years of searching, I’m finally down to a few good stores to visit. Though, I never get $2/yard though! That’s amazing!!! What’s your plan to use these fabrics? Looking forward to it.
That’s so sweet of you to do that for your mom! It definitely takes a while to find great fabric stores, they’re pretty hit or miss. I’m not 100% sure what I’m going to do with all of them but they were too cute (and cheap!) to pass up! Most of the more neutral ones are going to be made into pillows for our master bedroom and the rest are up in the air

It’s hard to keep a good store to yourself when you’re so excited, but I think it’s smart! If too many people go to the same place, it won’t be cheap anymore!
