I bought it, when I saw it!

At Mardens! LOL! Happy Friday folks, anyone who has lived in Maine will know EXACTLY what I am referring to! I had a super fun day today shopping with my friend Kathy J. She wanted my opinion on some fabric she was buying to cover bulletin boards in a Montessori school she is opening and I needed some materiel to re line my favorite coat so off to Mardens we went! Well, my friends, I came back with more than 1 cut of fabric. I had been furiously knitting through my yarn stash before the holidays and I wanted to get some new yarn but I decided that I would just wait until Mardens got a good sale in, well, that happened today! Wanna see what I bought? Well, OK, as long as you are not married to me you can watch today’s video:

Crazy deals huh? they had a bunch of scrap booking stuff just in too and loads of beads but I did not really investigate that too much as I have a small bead hoard at the moment…make that fairly large stockpile. They had a lot of craft books too that I thought about picking up as gifts, I might have to go back…but then I’d look at the beads (they even had a pallet of boxes they hadn’t even unpacked yet!) oh, I definitely need to go back LOL! No, I really better not. Clearly my willpower is not the best at that store:) I did, however already recover the chair I bought the decorator fabric for, it turned out OK, I always think of ways I’d do it differently if I had it to do over but that’s the way it goes when you try something new! I’ll get a photo of the chair in the daylight to share with you tomorrow. I hope you enjoyed my shopping share and if you live near a Mardens you might want to stop in to see if there is any yarn you can’t live without (I have to say some was at the front of the store and the rest was near the fabric department, sneaky.)

Thanks for stopping by and til next time happy crafting!
