You won't believe it, but I paid $2.00 ea for 4 bins! I also got vintage hankies in the original box for 10 cents, and quilting books for 10 cents ea. I didn't know about the UFO's until I got home, that was an extra bonus. :-P
I don't know what's going on, maybe people are downsizing due to the economy. I'm just glad I'm in the right place at the right time, and it's in my price range. I decided to skip the yard sale today where fabric was $1.00 per yard...darn!
I used to wash everything before I would use it in a quilt but now that is not the case. Unless it is a dark color that I don't trust I press it and use it. I have been lucky I guess because I have never had a quilt bleed when washed.
