Back in the day, and by the day, I mean the mid 70's, Wegmans wasn't quite so gourmet, but it was still all that. It was the first store in the area that had bar code scanners! Very high tech.
So, what's this have to do with quilting, you might ask (because it's all gotta revolve around quilting, right?)
Wegmans had a fabric department! I'm not kidding. Two aisles over from the frozen food was the Wegmans Fashion Fabrics! And because I don't throw away anything, here's the bag to prove it:
along with some remnants my mom saved. I think I made her some muumuus with these gems.
Very groovy, don't you think?

I'd love some muumuus out of those fabrics!
Beautiful fabrics....just love them...in Samoa they would have fabric in the food stores...
Like wow!
ha! my mom wore a muu muu back in the day!
How awesome to find that bag! Hold on to it long enough and it will be worth some money. I worked at Wegmans too, but we were quite gourmet by that time, and certainly there was no fabric department. You had it much better!
