Danger...Danger!!!

What's the danger you ask?? Hancock Fabrics is going out of business. This is a good/bad thing. Good because it means time for some good deals. Bad because it means spending money on good deals. Also bad because this leaves Hobby Lobby as the only other craft store in town that I know of. Sweet Pea and I found a few good deals there today. I got some fleece to make some stay-dry diaper liners with, a cute dress pattern, bobbins, thread, and a zipper for $6.66. The cashier kinda freaked out with the number. Please people that's the way math happens sometimes the end of the world is not coming because I paid the amount of 666.

Anyhoo, I'm breaking out the sewing machine tonight to get a few projects done before my yarn gets here. Thank you Mr. Man for letting me get some more yarn!!! I got the Picky Pants pattern from Little Turtle Knits and can't wait to try it out. I also need to make a soaker that will fit Sweet Pea. I think it's good that my hobbies bring me joy and help to diaper the kids. Or maybe I'm just talking myself into finding a way to knit. I'll take it either way. Now if I get good at knitting this stuff maybe I'll look seriously into getting a cottage license. Not sure though...need to pray about that one, and see what life is like with 2 kids first.

Gotta love closing out sales in some ways. I got tulle and ribbon there for the wedding. Paid an entire dollar for the ribbon. Another interesting point to note is that if Phillip and I go to Java Junkie and I get my regular in small and he gets his regular in large (I think) it comes out to be 6.66. We've just gotten used to it but they still comment everytime!

Out by denny's they are supposed to be building a new strip mall and a target. They said that it should be comparative to Gunbarrel when they are done so maybe they will build a Micheals as well then you'd have an option other than just Hobby Lobby.
