    Just got back from shopping with my mom for sewing machine needles and batting. We stopped at a yard sale on the way home that didn't look like it would be that great but stopped anyway. Amidst all the clothing... there it was... Fabric! It still had the sales slips pinned to the pieces with the yardage and price per yard. I took the pile to the gal running it and asked how much because there was no other price on it. Without even looking at what I had she said $12! I gave it to her and left. There is over $150 in fabrics! I am in fabric heaven!

    Good for you! I had a little bit of luck today as well. Not that good but for me it was great. Probably about 25 yds in 16 pieces for $6.00. It's being washed and dried right now so maybe I'll get some pics later on. Love a deal!

    What a great deal! What is worthless to someone else is not worthless to us!
