Excitment for Halloween

So yesterday I made my way over to the dingy little JoAnn's Fabric store to pick up a couple things that I forgot to get for my costume pattern. I was surprised to see that JoAnn's was very much a hustle. The crowd that was gathered at the tiny fabric store this day was mostly women (like always), but unusually there were a lot of college-aged women who probably don't sew. There were two of these girls in front of me waiting to get fabric cut. One girl was buying some material to make a "tube-top" to go under her costume. The other girl had a neat purple material that looks like it would be difficult to make anything out of, which she was using for her greek goddeess costume.

Now that I am taking this sewing class, and have had to go into JoAnn's to search the store extensively, I feel like I am at a different level of fabric shopper. I now can say I know what I'm doing. Besides that, I should point out that, although I know what I'm doing now, I was in the store for the same reason as everyone else, to get things for my costume.
