I found these two supersized spools of twine at Tilda's Bake Shop. Now, I know that you know how much I love the new MARTHA STEWART: CRAFTS product line. But I'm just saying...
In Other News
Today I was able to get over to the thrift store and found that they had completely reorganized everything. It was a little disorienting (I'm a big time creature of habit) but once I found the fabric bins I was set. Plus, all baskets were half-price so I found a couple that were perfect for making basket bags. I haven't made any since the Christmas before last so I think it's about time for a couple.
Here's the fabric (with a little bit of basket peeking out at you from the top):
Your supersize twine had me laughing and laughing!

Ah ha. Tilda! I have some bakery sites bookmarked just so I can order myself some mammoth twine. I just added Tilda to the list. :)
Good thrifty finds too!

I love your sense of humor :) and not only that--You are a saint! Do you know how long I've been looking for bi-color twine (a very, very long time) except I've been calling it "butcher twine"--thank you!!!!

I love the picture of the twines. I payed like 60 bucks for a spool of red bordeux twine that sadly resembles Martha's spool more than Tilda's. I got it from Raffit Ribbons and boy.. I would NOT do that again!
Thanks for the link to Tilda's! Hugs!

Oh, that Martha! Well, I supposed she's aiming at the market of people who don't what 50 miles of twine (that wouldn't be any of us).
I checked out your basket bags. They are SO cool!
