    Here on Long Island, we have Savers, a wonderful, extremely well organized, superbly run thrift shop which benefits Big Brothers/Big Sisters. It is my 'go to place' now for materials. I'm finding 100% cotton tablecloths, napkins, etc. which I re-use in my quilting projects. I hope you all have a 'Savers' nearby!

    Why didn't I think of this sooner? I did a Google search for: Thrift stores in.....(insert your city) and see what you find. Places i never knew existed. Now I have some new places to check out. What did you find??

    I thought I have read that using sheets isn't good because the density of the material is different. Am I wrong?
