    Default Look what I found today!
    I was on my way home from town and saw a garage sale sign. I had a bit of time, so I checked it out. Turns out the gal was a quilter and was getting rid of a few pieces of fabric..... I bought a bit over 20 yds for $25!!! She either liked purple or didn't like purple..a lot of purple...butterfly fabric, fish fabric, a yard of red and a blue and white print. Here are some pictures. The last two were "pieces". Looked like the leftovers from quilt backings, but plenty of it. Nothing under a yard! I'm still doing the "happy dance"!

    Nice Haul!!! I'm always amused when I see that someone stopped at a garage sale in March! No such thing as a March garage sale here in Indiana!!

    Wow, here it won't be garage sale season for a few month. And I haven't ever lucked out like you did-guess I will keep looking once the season starts. Congratulations on your great finds.

    Great find...no garage sales here yet and I do have to admit I am in need of a good "Garage Sale fix".
