I am not one to shop for quilt fabric at yard sales, but this one was held by a lady who used to own a quilt shop locally. She closed it a while back and was unloading the balance of her fabric. It was $5.00 a pound, which is about 3 1/2 yards. Most pieces are at least a yard. I spent #30.00, got 23 different pieces, mostly batiks (my fav) plus a 36 x 24 Olfa cutting mat. Yowza baby! I am a happy girl...and will be washing all afternoon....
