I have rarely participated in Black Friday. I happen to think it’s a ploy to rob me. But this year was different. I actually called my mother to invite her along. Stop The Press!!
Yes there was some urgency.

There was a notice in our paper that the owner of this shop had passed away. And they are selling her fabric at a significantly lower price and closing shop. This local business has been a very big blessing in our area. We live an hour in any direction from the nearest big chain fabric store. (Until recently, we acquired a Hobby Lobby) But let’s get real. This was the Ultra fabric stop for serious quilters.
Mom and I decided to check out the bargains and show our support for the family. This must be difficult for them.
Below is my ‘haul’. I am planning some serious sewing this coming year.

This is a better look at the fat quarters.

A peek at the gallery will show you all the tiny ‘doors’ I found in this treasure trove. I hope you’ll, somehow, identify with this version of Thursday Doors and take time to visit Norm 2.0 for beautiful door posts around the globe.
Venice Doors Scandinavian Doors Log Cabin Doors Birdhouse Doors Amish Doors Farm Doors School House (no door) Eiffel Tower Door Doge’s Palace Doors St. Mark’s Campanile (This one’s for Rachel)
I was neglectful in mentioning the transportation provided by my eldest daughter. Thank you Rachel for tolerating and enabling your mother and grandmother on this expedition. Love you bunches!!!
Geez, a post where my pulse quickened at a fabric sale and my heart saddened at the loss of a quilt store owner. But, it was great that you and your Mom had a special day out, grabbed some bargains, and supported the shop. Life moves on, doesn’t it. 🙂

Sorry for the late visit. Looks like you got this one in under the wire on Saturday, and because I was tied up most of the weekend I almost missed it 🙂
