This is it folks....the time of the year when I allow myself to lose my mind at Jo-anns! Its the Daffodil Dash! This is when everything I love is practically 50-60% off! I strategically saved my birthday 20% off coupon so I could capitalize on this event. Based on the dates of the sale and the cash flow into my bank account...this was going to be a two trip shopping spree.
SUNDAY'S RUN 04/27/14 - So my first plan of attack was the 50% red tag clearance fabrics. Since the sale started on Sunday...I would focus my attention, money, and efforts just on what I could get from the clearance section only. Of course I get there right before the store opens....I want to be the first one in the clearance section. One time I made the mistake of getting to the store thirty minutes after it opened, and a lady had a cart full of fabric from the clearance section---no she was not a sharing sewer! When I asked if she going to get all that fabric, she looked at me and said yes! Lesson learned, not every sewer practices the sharing is caring principle.
I ended up with 23 cuts of fabric in 1 1/2 to 2 yard cuts. I threw in a Fons and Porter Magazine because I'm a sucker for always buying a magazine! Below is my fabric haul from the red tag clearance event.
