Hey! That is my Quilt on your couch!! Great Haul!! And I hope you are just fixing the tears in my quilt for me! LOL Did you buy that one? I bought mine and think it sure looks hand quilted it wasn't very much money like maybe $30.00 for king size. I have had it for years.

Guess what else I did? Went back to the same garage sale on Saturday and bought 8 more quilt tops for $35.00. This lady said " these quilt tops aren't as nice as the ones I sold you yesterday". I asked her how much she would take if I bought them all and she said $35.00. These tops are beautiful and they are all at least full size if not bigger.

The heat here is horrible. Still in the triple digits. I will try to post pics of the tops.

The bargains are out there. You just have to keep looking. I went back to the Abilities Unlimited Store today on my lunch break. They had everything 50% off. I bought 10 hard back books and 6 Walmart bags of fabric, plus a bag of filler for pillows for $15.00.

I love garage sales, you never know what you will find there that you just can't live without. :)
The fun is going thru it when you get home, to see what you bought.

Your second find was better than the first :)
