Fabric Score!

Ladies, if you sew, you MUST go check out your local Wal-Mart and see if they are having the same great clearance deal that I got in on at ours.
My stepson and his girlfriend were shopping at Wal-Mart last night and called to tell me that they were having a major clearance on fabrics back in the craft department. Our Wall-Mart no longer has a fabric department :( but they do carry the prepack precuts of fabric.
Well, when I found out they had a BUNCH of the fabrics packs marked down to 2/3 off, I actually made a midnight run to the store :)
Hubby said he would go with me since it was pretty late. That was good cause when we checked out he just smiled and handed me the credit card. Such a good man. He never complains when I buy goodies to make things for the needy babies. I am very lucky that way.
So here we go. This is what I bought.

I got ALL OF THIS for $50.57.
And SAVED $103.63 off the original prices.
What a haul and a deal! At least I thought so, lol.









Now for the close ups.

You never have enough fat quarters, right gals? So I picked up a few of the basic colors for......are you ready?...... 30 cents each!

I’m a sucker for bright colors so I got some hot pinks for a little girls quilt or two. The 2 yard cuts were $1.90 each.

I don’t think you ever have enough purples either so picked up a few of those too. The 1 yard cuts were $1.40 each. The one with the 2 different fabrics in it was $2.70.

These cute prints were $1.90 each.
The first is Winnie The Pooh, the next is fire trucks, then you have teddy bears, and last is zoo animals. Each one is 2 yards.

Now these really caught my eye. They are blanket kits and include a cute front panel that’s 36x44 with material for backing to match. And they were only $2.20 per kit!! How could any sewing person pass those up??

I picked up a couple of slightly patterned white for backings or whatever (you never have enough white). The bundles of 7 co coordinating fat quarters were only $2.70 each. Gosh, in some places you can’t get ONE fat quarter for that!

Look at this cute little rag doll kit I got for $2.00. Me thinks this might make a nice Christmas present for the granddaughter. At least that’s the plan.

Last but not least are these 2 patterns I got. The bonnet will be nice to have to make for some of the burial sets I make. And the dress and hat is just plain cute, and pretty simple to make after looking the pattern over.





So there’s my haul. I just had to share and tell you, go check out Wally World! Now I just have to find the time to make all this stuff!
Once again, Blogger is doing goofy stuff with spacing when you publish a post so if it looks wanky, it's not me!

  1. Walmart is bringing back the fabric section very soon to many of their stores. Hopefully you'll be able to get more great bargains.

  4. Hey Susie - you really found some great deals. I was in Wal-Mart last week and out of the corner of my eye I saw the fabric back in there. I thought that was strange because they had taken it out; so now, I'll have to go back. I am always so jealous of friens who have the nack of sewing. I know I would be hooked once I got it down. Thanks for joining me at Seven Gates. It's becoming busy with fall peeping around the corner and the storm Irene. We have a little clean-up but not like the coast. Can't wait to see what you do with all that fabric. Debi

  5. Hi Susie! You did make quite a haul. I love the lavender shades of fat quarters you found! I just wanted to stop by for a visit and thank you for stopping by the bayou this week! I love what you do for needy babies, and I admire any lady who can crochet, too. I never could get the hang of it. Of course, down here in S. Louisiana, we don't have a lot of call for warm fuzzies, but I am waiting for a good friend of mine in another state to make me a scarf I can wrap around my neck on those winter mornings when I go fishing! So nice to meet you! BW
