    Wish there were garage sales like that in South Dakota. - Oh wait - when I die there probably will be one consisting of all my fabric. Back to the sewing room to use up some more!

    I used to think my stash would look like this when I died but after seeing what "too much" looks like in person, I'm pretty sure mine can fit into a van or maybe a van and an SUV. Or maybe a van, SUV and a midsize car. Oh, hell let's just get a moving truck!!!

    it is a teal and there isn't any information on the selvage. If you are interested, I've got some to spare; just send me a pm!

    They had a basket of about 30-40 zippers and they wanted $35 dollars for it. about half of them were ones that had been removed from an article of clothing (upcycled - which is okay in my book!) They wouldn't come down in the price so I opted for the fabric instead of the zippers!
