Expense: Supplies and Fabric

Once again I couldn't help myself, I went to the fire sale for the last time (they are closing the store down and will be moving to a yet unannounced new location).  This time the shelves were noticeably more empty.  So that's good for them.

Final Purchase at Fire Sale

I found a few bolts of Kona Cotton - and then also got some patterned fabric (dots, checkerboards).  They tried to make me get the entire bolts but I stood my ground and just got 2 yards of each of the plain and 1 of the rest.  There were two pieces that had just two yards or 2 and 1/8 yard so I got all (and lowered the price to 70% off!).  I don't really need any more fabric and don't have a lot of finishes to point to so I couldn't rationalize getting a entire bolt of one fabric.  (But part of me is wishing I had that purple bolt and a bunch of the purple isocord thread in the closet here!)

The thread was still 50% off so I picked up a few more spools of Isocord recommended by Leah Day.  They did not have the same green that I am using for my current FMQing projects.

And I got a few more packages of needles.  They had handicapped version of the 80/12 recommended by Leah Day, I got two twin needles and one needle with two holes...  The price was so low it was nice to get something to experiment with!
