I have been envious of the great scores some of y'all find but nomore!

An ad on my local Craigslist for a fabric sale last Thurs/Fri had bummed me out as I couldn't go on Friday and didn't see it until too late on Thursday. So I emailed my number and asked for a call if another time would be available.

I just got home with 48+ yards of fabric and 25 spools of Mettler thread for $100!!!

The lady had owned a quilt shop that she closed due to moving then just got married again and didn't want to move it all again.

Color me estatic :mrgreen:

Wow!! You hit it big time. Maybe I should start checking CL. If I didn't spend so much time on this board I might score.

Fantastic find...maybe there's hope for me yet! Haven't had anything "amazing" to report in the fabric/notions dept.

Jingle 10-12-2010 06:44 PM

Lucky you, I never look anywhere and of course I don't find any good deals. I have a big cabinet almost full of fabrics and really don't think I will get it sewn into quilts anytime soon.

:shock: :hunf:

ssgramma 10-14-2010 09:04 AM

Sorry MaryAnna, I didn't take a picture before spending a lot of time getting it all properly folded and into the cabinet.

We are getting ready for a yard sale tomorrow so I had to get it all off my cutting table so I could move the table to the garage.

But there will surely be plenty of projects made from the fabric to share pics of!!!
