I have already claimed some of my husband's shirts when he no longer wants them, they are lovely fabric and nice looking.

I love finding material and notions at yard sales and thrift stores. We have a few in town that I have a lot of luck with. One sells the fabric $1.00 a meter!

My daughters go to look at thrift stores to find dresses to wear, and I look at the dresses to rip apart for fabric

One trip to the thrift stores I found so many items that I said , that's it no more spending for me I reached my limit ($20.00)
THEN we go to a yard sale of a sewer and she was selling so many nice pieces of fabric . I only spent $5 but I wanted it all!!!!

Pillow cases for Special Olympicians and shopping bags for some living in group homes.
