    I went to an Estate sale today and got over 20 yards of muslin for....drumroll.... $1. Yup. I was pleased. Of course I spent $200 on 100 spools of fancy, machine embroidery thread. A good deal for that but not a steal. The muslin was a bonus!

    I don't use muslin on my backs, but I do use it for foundation piecing so it will come in handy, for sure!

    Sounds like you did excellent Candace!! Even on the thread you got a really great deal, but all that material for a dollar you cant beat that with a stick!!
