Sunday Stash #3 Stash Shopping

Had a very lovely Mother's Day today with my Mum which included the set-up of her new web cam, a Mom Day gift to her from my sister who we test called right away, then off to an Estate sale for some thrift shopping fun!
I got to pop into Jo-Ann's Fabrics this evening on a quick near by pet store errand and picked up some sweet deals with coupons!

Behold... this color palette I randomly pulled from the shelves of 30% off solid cottons, and two were end of the bolt discounts as well! Double score!

I also grabbed spools of black and white thread, two each also on sale. However, my major purchase today was 2.5 yards of light gray felt. Why, you wonder? I'm making a giant mouse costume.....

just kidding! I've redone my design wall! I am fortunate enough to have a large wall in my studio which is dedicated to a permanent design wall space and I formerly used the backside of a large vinyl table cloth which was a trick I learned from my Grandma. Well that wall is a tough one to nail into and the table cloth sagged and rippled in a rather obnoxious way. So I've been wanting to make it nicer and flatter and well, less annoying.

Enter felt yardage (also on sale) in gray (softer on the eyes). I just guessed at the amount I would need, sure that 2.5 yards would be close to the same size as the vinyl table cloth. Then I unfolded it and saw that I was going to need the ladder.

Crazy huge right?!?!
(Please ignore the clutter below, had to move everything out of the way to hang this sucker.)

Alright. Time to sleep. Linking up with Molli Sparkles Sunday Stash and today's host Em of Sewing By Moonlight

Happy Mothers Day!
