Nice little payload you tripped on. I love surprise days like that. I don't have any neighbors where that can happen, but I love the same effect at the thrift store. I'm willing to spend a few dollars on some bargain basement deals!

Explosive blessings, abundance and inspiration to you all!

Those will make some really Spring-looking quilts. A D9P (do a Search at the top of this page) would be great & the first fabric would make great borders. Great find.

Great find. Can't wait to see what you make with it.

And this is what I found!!!! I couldnt belive it. I took ALL of it. A total of 18 yards plus .125 inches OF FABRIC. I was soooooo excited I almost wet my pants. LOL. And here is a picture of all of it. Plus there was a package of tracing paper and the tracer thing, a book titled A Santa Story put out by Thimbleberries, a few small zippers, which I needed and a few other odds and end things. I literally hit the Jackpot. Before I took the fabrics though, I went and talked to the office manager and asked if they were in the free box and she said yes and that she knew who had put them there. So that made my day!! So my fabric stash went from YES 5 yards to 23 yards and cost me NOTHING. How cool is that. Here are pictures of the fabric that I got.


WTG! Looks like you've already got them sorted as to how you'll use them.
