I'm going to attempt to post pictures! Hope this works! Taken from two different directions on the table. I still have to pick up 5 more yards that got into my friends bag! I'm in heaven!

I also read the obits. Went to one where the man passed away and he worked on sewing machines for a hobby. ANother guy came in an bought his machines and all attachments. When I got there he was loading a trailer. Yes not morbid. Survivors of the estate usually want to get rid of what they didn't want. In real estate we call it a lead.

Great haul! It all looks very usable too. Decent colors and patterns, not what I usually find.
Congrats on your score!

Ooooh, look at all that pretty fabric!

Lucky you!

You know, if you don't have enough space left in your house, I'd be willing to take some of it off your hands!
