    Default Garage sale finds

    I got lucky this morning. We are in "tiger country" here in Baton Rouge and someone didn't want all that fabulous fleece! There is a lot of it. Plus the new cutting mat. Never have had one that color. Entire purchase - $7.00. That makes up from going to all those zillion garage sales and finding nothing.

    Indeed we are!!! We live close enough to Tiger Stadium that if we walk to the front of the subdivision we can see the lights and hear the crowd!! Hubby goes to the games.

    I'm laughing.. I've been thinking that the garage sales here just don't have fabric, as quilting is very popular... and it's been getting frustrating.. Maybe I will hit pay dirt if I keep going.. Thanks for your story

    Congratulations! It is always exciting to find fabric and tools that are just what you like and can use.
