Went grocery shopping today and met a widow whose husband used to work with my husband and two of her daughters were with her and they mentioned that they were having an estate sale. Asked when, tomorrow, then asked does she have any fabric. Yes, three tables full. Sorry won't be home tomorrow until Sat. Oh you can come over this afternoon and look. So we went back after lunch and I got three boxes 9 1/4x12x17 of 6" squares all cut and packed, another box same size of lots of flannel for $1.50 a yard, a sewing machine catch all with the magnet, don't know the real name and a three pocket log cabin hanger for sewing needs by your machine and a clock for $68.00. Can't wait to start sewing all those squares together. Sorry I can't post pictures, my computer is stubborn.
