    Some Thrift Shops that I have gone to, have just junk. Things that should have been thrown away and other have great finds. I always find a lot of good buys after the rummage sales in the spring and fall. What they don't sale, they give to the Thrift Sale Stores. Winter is a bad time to shop them. In Wisconsin where I lived, I had better luck then I do here in Missouri.

    I really like that pattern....After looking at it for a while I see how it's made...really simple, but looks great!!! Great find on the fabric.

    I think in order to get the best choices you need to check back often and know when they put out the good stuff. I'm with you Judy, I don't find much good stuff. Glad to see that others are striking it rich.

    I check our thrift store and never have had a good find.
    Your quilt is beautiful. I have never seen that pattern before.
