    I would never have thought of that. Not a thrift shop person. But I will certainly start looking. Have a woman who goes to occupational therapy with me who used to own a quilt shop (I'm quite chatty), and she invited me over to check out the fabrics she still has. Can't wait. Know it is difficult when there are no quilt shops. There are a lot more in the midwest than anywhere else in the states. As a fulltime on the road wife, I have the adventure of a lifetime checking them all out. One of my favorites (other than in Paducah), is in Sedalia, MO. Now I have another source to check out. Thank you.

    A caravan in the garden would be fun.

    What a clever girl you are. The fabrics are just beautiful, I can see some real pretty quilts coming out of them.

    Look what I got at 2 different yard sales Sat!
    The one with the batting was $4.00-has a pre-cut dresden
    that the lady had paid $13.99 for, and a pkg. of 8 fat quarters that she had paid $7.94 for. The other batch of fabric was $5.00 and she still had plenty left! Had to hide it at my mom's for right now, and sneak some home now and then!LOL

    Oh you have found some really delightful bright and beautiful fabrics...not drab at all which is what I would probably find at a local charity shop.

    And you get them at a great price!
