This will hopefully make me appreciate the nice weather more when it finally stays with us.

Same thing in the deep south...perhaps not AS cold. It's been in the thirties the last two mornings (after a few days of beautiful spring-like days and a few days of muggy Louisiana weather). Everyone and their dogs have the Louisiana crud (sinus problems!). Yard sales go on all the time year-round, but rarely do we find fabric. Your catch is awesome. I, too, love the paislies.

Lucky girl, now we will enjoy seeing what you make with your haul. I found some at a thrift store and had a big box given to me and it makes you feel so good to get a good haul and know your saving it from landfil. Happy for you.

WOW !!!!!!!!! What a nice way to build your stash. Great find. I, too, am from Southern California - Orange County and Los Angeles County, some in Bakersfield County. Miss the place sometimes.

Wow what a deal! Have fun with them. I love the blue jays and cardinals cutouts in the 2nd photo lower right corner. The blue they are on top of would go well with them and some of the red next to the blue with the cutouts.
