    Great for you! I went to a sale once and didn't see a thing I wanted. I thanked the lady and she asked me what I was looking for. I told her I was a quilter and I looked for fabric. She sold me 5 big plastic bins for about $10...her mother's quilting things...it was a gold mine..fabric, squares already made, batting, etc. Lesson I learned was to ask because you never know what they didn't bring outside!

    Dang, I wish I had heard about this. I live in Ft. Wayne, but am not going to be able to get there.

    That's amazing I never find any good stuff here. Hopefully I will get to hit some yard sales when I'm in Chicago this summer.

    You did indeed hit the jackpot. Are you planning on going to any more garage sales this weekend, I think you're on a roll so go for it.
