" I will have him post pictures."
Sounds like a good incentive to learn how to post pictures yourself. haha Trust me, if I can figure this computer stuff out, I know you can. You've figured out this new board and that's a big start!

I knew I wasn't the only one who had scored great fabric at Goodwill, but GOSH, my finds are miniscule compared to the treasures you've been hauling home! Congratulations! And go right back! You never know when this streak will end, and you can't afford to miss great bargains! I'd go! In fact, I believe I will. You've inspired me, and tomorrow, I shall make my rounds of my "Previous Fabric Sightings in Thrift Shops"! We've got a "Goodwill MegaStore", and they almost always have some fabric!
Cheers!
Cheers!

I would do as someone else suggested, go through it, pick out what you know you would put in a quilt and sell the rest. Remember, don't sell it only for $2 or 3 dollars since you will be charged by PayPal, gas and washing and ironing it. Good luck, keep doing what you like to do, going to Good Will. Good luck!! By the way, don't use a credit card to buy it, sounds like a mother right??

the goodwill in south central wisconsin seems to always have a lot of fabric. it must be some sort of feeder supply there such as a fabric warehouse or such. since many of us may not live near the goodwill she keeps finding these incredable bargains, you know you can shop at the goodwill online. visit their website at http://www.shopgoodwill.com/ and shop til you drop. they ship anywhere. if you want to look specifically in wisconsin, then click on the search box at top, click on sellers and chose the wisconsin goodwills. i know the south central one has had plenty of fabric for sale and several vintage sewing machines.
