On my way to Ottawa this past weekend I left super early on Friday morning to make a pit stop across the border in Watertown, NY because there was a Target and a Joann’s. There was a big line up heading into the US and while I was waiting I saw the huge line to get back into Canada and was worried I’d be super stuck travelling back at about 5pm but all was good.
I thought getting through the border would be pretty easy, I’m a girl, you’re a girl, I’m going to Target, but I was asked a lot of questions and had to open my trunk and such . . . but then I was let into the US!
I picked up some fun fabrics in Joann’s.
I’m in love with this mustardy print.
I paired it up with this pretty grey fabric, no project in mind at all, just love the combo.
I also picked up some woodgrain, because you can always use more woodgrain fabrics!
And this vintage rose sort of print. I must be developing a thing for yellow recently.
Now what to make, what to make . .
Those are all so cute! Much better than Fabricland’s offering in Canada. I’ve been wondering about a cross-border fabric shopping run – My inlaws live just an hour from the border, and it would be a fun (though hard to justify) little adventure!
How did you find the prices compared to Canada?
I LOVE the yellow print, that would be so fabulous in my living room! I wonder if I could order it online….
I’ve been drooling…gorgeous!
Why yes, I’d love to go to the States with you! Nice haul, btw. ;D
Those are great fabrics! At first I thought the wood grain fabric was actually wood. haha!
