Congratulations on your find! I recently had a garage sale and was thinning out my quilt studio...I had over 90 quilt books and sold them for $5 each - they went fast, as did the fabric I sold for $2/yard. My studio was fast becoming overcrowded, and I needed room to buy new fabrics during my trip to Sisters, Oregon!

Is Bargain World still open on South Tacoma Way in Tacoma? I used to love going in there. I have moved to Oregon and haven't been back but to visit my son every once in a while. Last time I was there The Duffel Bag was closing. :cry:

I don't know about South Tacoma way, the two stores I frequent are on Union St, not far from Pt Defiance Park, and on Pacific Ave, 162nd st, across from Spinkler Golf Course and Park. I have the best luck for books on Union, and fabric pieces on Pacific.
Also, great fun at St. Vincent de Paul's stores. A new one opened on Pacific and 128th St.
