One trick I learned from bing broke is to go to the local thrift store and search for clothing items (all at 50 cents or so) that have a great print or even sheets that run normally around $1 to $2 dollars. Take the items home, wash and dry, cut them to managable pcs and use this fabric in scrap quilts, Flying Geese quilts or anything else I can think of. I have found a lot of great prints at very low prices. I have been working on baby quilts and for less that $3.00, I can put one together that looks GREAT!
