They had gone the previous Wed. and bought everything that wasn't sold at a sale last weekend. My sale :!: :!: :!: . I didn't ask what they paid but they were wanting practically new prices for each book and magazine when the majority of them were 3 to 10 years old. When I asked how it was going, they said not too well. It was obviously not a week for quilters. So I consider myself truly blessed and in the right place at the right time for once. And No, I never said a word about being at the sale the week before :lol:
Oh did you have the last laugh!! Hadn't seen this post, but just read through all 12 pages, Carol. Made me a little sad to hear of the reference to "old sewing junk". Hundreds, nay thousands here on the board would have appreciated every bit that was there. This should get your creative juices flowing again, don't you think? :idea: Those yo yo's--good doll swap quilt? G
