I went on a whim and came home with 8 spools of crochet thread for tying, 2 skeins of baby yarn for my mom in law, and two pieces of fabric. All for around $7.

When I got home I measured and one of the fabrics was a Cranston crazy quilt print 44 inches wide and 8 YARDS long. The other was a very old 36 inch wide print and it was 2 yards long. 10 yards of fabric for $1. Best bargain yet. And it is good condition.

You got a steal. I have found lots of great things at estate sales. One time a woman had a sewing store, her sale was great. Came home with 3 big boxes of tools and fabric for $30.
Love you name.
