    Sandy, the garage-Sale Queen said she paid $3 for all this! It amounts to 5 POUNDS of fabric. My husband about gagged, but I love all the bright colors.

    these are that stiff painted-on feeling stuff. I have no idea what I'll do with these.

    OK, I admit it... this is hideous, but there's 3-4 yards of each!

    Wahoo! 1-24 8 & 9" square sof each. Can you say picnic blankets??

    And then there is this... Lilly Pulitzer fabric! Well, hot spit, I'd never even heard of her until I researched the signature. I may find a collector for these.

    The "hideous" fabric would be beautiful framed in black like the "city streets" ,or the "deco" patterns , both of which are free!
