I went to JoAnn's today. Did I mention that the current store is closing, as they're putting in a Super JoAnn's about four blocks away? Yeah. Everything in the store is at least 40% off. Oh darn. Wow, watch my arm twist, I guess I'll have to get more fabric. /sarcasm
black velvet on the left, orange/yellow silk in the middle, and charcoal wool on the right
This is what I came home with: 10 yards of black cotton velveteen ($4/yd), 1 1/2 yards of the orange/yellow shot silk for beguine lining ($6/yd), and 8 yards of luscious 100% tropical-weight charcoal wool ($2.75/yd)

I'm prewashing the wool right now. I don't know what it's going to be yet, but the fabric voices told me I had to get it. So, I got it. (And if I can manage to get back to JoAnn's when I get paid again, I think I'll clear out their linens...)

ETA: I should perhaps explain that this was the result of pointing out to Boe that he spent far more at this convention than I *ever* did at the fabric stores, and would like the opportunity to prove it. Hee hee.
