Just got home with my treasures from the Thrift store in New Hamburg. This store has a complete corner for quilting and materials. I bought 5 yards of off white cotton for $4.38 total and 6 yards of a pretty green for $7.00 total!!! All quilting magazines are $0.50! My total for 10 yards of cotton and 6 books was $14.37 WOW! All magazines were 1 year old or less! I feel like I just hit the jackpot. In the corner of store there are 3 frames set up and this is where the menonite ladies do their quilting. There is tops for sale, charm packs with 300 pieces for $10.00. I can't wait to back next month to see what I can find!

Wish I lived there! I love thrift stores. We have a very small one in our town. Sometimes I find quilting books but that's about it!

Brenda what is the name and location of this store? I have an optometrist appt in New Hamburg on Wednesday and I think I should go a little early and do some shopping. What type of fabrics were in the charm packs? I am looking for some to make Dresden Plates with.
