Here are a few things I got on Friday. I got several hoops so I can display some of my favorite fabrics. Then I scored a set of Laura Ashley Flannel sheets. The wooden Pepsi crate (in great condition) - $1.00. I KNOW!!! The women at this sale had many items over priced & her husband was standing next to me when I asked him how much. He didn't have to tell me twice, I handed him the dollar & took off running before his wife could find out what happened. That was a funny moment. And to top it off, my husband told me the crate was made in June of 1975 - very cool. I asked him how did he know - it's stamped inside the crate...duh...
This chair was one of my best finds. It's old & could use some work but the more I look at it the more I'm glad I didn't have to fight anyone over it...lol! It's one of those chairs that folds up into a step ladder. I figure I could give the old quilt rack a rest and stack my quilts on this chair.
I got this sewing cabinet to use in my sewing room. Not only is it a great spot for my computer but also to use as a cutting table.
This lamp is also for my sewing room. I wanted more light near my sewing machine and I saw this beauty. It originally came with the glass cover sitting on the table but I still bought it even though it had chips. I figure I would just get a replacement cover and sure enough - a few sales later, I came across an old ceiling fan with 5 glass covers for a BUCK!
These magazines are very cool! For .25 cents a piece, I couldn't pass them up. It was a day of treasure hunting, there were times we felt like the guys from American Pickers - minus the camera crew...LOL! And speaking of treasure, I have one more to share but that can wait til later...

Next...
This is what I'm working on. I ordered the State Fair pattern from Kelly waaaaay back and now I'm going to make it. And at the same time, I'll be working on a runner for my mom's dresser top. Hope y'all are having a great weekend!

BLACK FRIDAY! It's on!
It's the SUPERBOWL version of the best shopping day of the year...and if you haven't seen some of the deals going on, and your into the event, you really need to go check out www.bfads.net. For example, Jo-ann's is having one heck of a sale...like 50% off of quilting notions - thread - all batting, 40% off of quilting bundles and they also have a Rowenta DX6900 Duo Iron for $39.99 (reg. 79.99). I can feel my heart pounding from all the anticipated excitement to come! Oh, and then there's Target, Kohl's, Michaels & Hancock's...too many stores to list them all. If you want more infomation, you really need to go check out the website.
DISCLAIMER...Prices & discounts are subject to change so make sure to check/verify the vendors ad to see what they will have on sale. I don't want anyone mad at me for a misprint. LOL! This website is supposed to have all the black Friday ads listed on it's website - www.bfads.net. Even though it's about a week away, it doesn't hurt to start planning ahead!

AWESOME! Good job Momma!
Those were words of approval from my little man. Besides completing one of my CGQC projects for September, it was the first time I used my darning foot. I thought it went okay. I practiced on some scraps and then I went ahead and quilted my Halloween wall hanging. Even though it was a small piece to quilt, I could see why you would want to wear gloves. Not bad for my first wall hanging - if I do say so myself, at least now I can cross it off my list!
