    You were fortunate our local Goodwill and Salvation Army stores are high on fabrics. It kinda ticks me off sometimes thinking everything is donated to them. I wonder about people who are shopping there because they have to.

    I brought back over 400 pounds of fabric from Goodwill, 99 cents a yard. Being a snowbird payed off there as our Goodwill at home will not except fabric. It took 7 extra large spaceage bags to get it home.

    Unhappy

    I keep reading how people get these fantastic buys at the thrift shop or a garage sale or an auction--do I live in the wrong part of the world?? I never see these buys

    All smiles for you. Wish our goodwill had that kind of a deal.

    yipee!!!! I've heard that JoAnns donates fabric to GoodWill but I have never found any like that. I did get about 12 yards of a summery bird print for 6 bucks once. I may not have bought it at the store but for that price it certainly came home with me!!!

    We have several local quilt shops but no good thrift stores around here. Lucky for you! Oh, when I take pics on my iPod I usually email them to myself, then open with my computer to post or whatever.
