    So the Dh & I went to a few yard sales today. They one lady had some fabric & old quilt books. I picked up two pieces of fabric. One yards of the blue marked $1.00 & two yards of the brown marked $2.00 in the picture. I took them up to the lady showed her price & her responce was "give me $1.00 for both pieces. OMG I think. Then I said to self go ahead & ask. Do you have a featherweight machine for sale? No but I would sell the bernnie machine I have. I'm thinking a bernina I can't be this lucky. so into her house we go. Sure enough a Bernette model 320. I asked what you like for it? Reply oh maybe $35.00, no I will take $25.00. I said sold. I brought her home cleaned oiled her up & she purrs like a kitten. Doing the happy dance. 3 yards for fabric & machine for $26.00. doesn't get much better than that,
