    Default right place, right time - thrift store haul!!

    I would bet they had just put it out!! 5 full jelly rolls (incl. Moda) and about 35 more pounds of good quilt fabric, all for about $40. Pieces of a yard or more, 75 cents each. I hit the motherlode. I did leave the flannel for someone else.

    My daughter is a frequent visitor to Goodwill outlook and her best find was about 60 Quilt shop quality fat quarters and some yardage as well for $12.00

    Lucky you!! I would not have hesitated.

    I have never seen good fabric like this in our charity shops. Occasionally I've seen some at Car Boot sales, but not often.
