This was my score for the day. Some 1/4 yard solid remnants for under $1.00 each, a little less than a quarter of the yellow polka dots for about $0.50, and the peach fabric for $1.00 a yard. I bought what was left on the bolt which came to just under 5 yards.
Then yesterday, I came across this fat quarter bundle for $8.00. It looks kind of springy, doesn't it? 
This is the rag quilt I've been working on. I wasn't sure where I was going with this, and decided it needed to be a bit larger, so I'm going to add three more rows before I finish it off. I used warm and natural quilt batting between the flannel squares, and it's really very heavy. It probably would have been fine without the batting, but this way it's extra cuddly!! Pretty traditional fabrics for a baby girl. I have a hard time stepping outside that box. I'm going to have to really work on that!! I like a lot of the modern fabrics and patterns I see, but it seems like when I'm choosing fabric and design for a quilt to make, I gravitate towards traditional patterns and fabrics. I don't want to ... it just happens!! 
Have a great day!! Terri

Love the fabrics you got...
I made a rag quilt and I did not put any batting in it...so, I will be interested to see how yours works out...I can imagine it would be rather heavy...
Great deals!!! I love the yellow polka dots.
The rag quilt looks soft and feminine too.
Oh, you have had some lovely retail therapy and your little rag quilt is gorgeous,so girlie!

It's always great to find fabric at a good price. The rag quilt looks good - I made a small one once - all that clipping! Never again...
