Terrific finds! Happy sewing!!

Some quilt guild could use that fabric for their community service projects. Or perhaps a FH group learning to sew...

Makes me a bit sad for the quilter! and the ones who just wanted to get rid of all the stuff! (I do understand) that transition into ?
On the other hand:) What a great buy! I would have taken it all and just sew away! guess I should go to garage sales!

You have got to be kidding! Why don't I ever find great deals like this? ((GREEN))

Edited to say ... I am happy for you. I bet lots of nice quilts come from that great find.

Not a hoarder, just a thrifty shopper. My kind of shopping. You done great, except for going back. I would have been there in a heart beat.

[QUOTE=mcdaniel023;6135467]I went to a garage sale today. The quilter had just moved to assisted living. The daughter handed me a grocery bag and said $2.00 a bag. I filled two bags and picked out three books and spent a grand total of $5.00. There is a total of 56 yards of quilt shop quality. I felt a little guilt until the guy working said, jokingly I think, If I came back at 3 he would give me my money back if I took everything that was left. I told him, my hubby would never let that happen. LOL![/QUOTE

congratulations!

i have hit two yard/estate sales like that in recent years. hubby at my side helping me load the truck. if i had been lucky enough to visit this one, i could have phoned him and said "bring the other truck! you won't believ what i found!" and he would have. he's my fabric huntin' buddy :)) ..i go thru hauls like this and pull out what i know i will never use because of color, style, print whatever and share w quilt friends or donate to thrift shop after offering to local church quilt groups. looks like you got some wonderful older calico fabrics. i-net friend & i were comparing notes the other day about our 80's & 90's calico stashes. how much we loved the calicos from those decades.

Love your haul..I couldn't have left without every piece!! AND my attitude is- if I am considered a hoarder so be it! This makes me happy and at my point in life, I have earned that right!

LOL, No way you are a hoarder, if you were, you would have never been able to walk away from the fabric to start with. Ask me how I know!

I love your "hoard"! I'm always looking for more!!! Good find!

I went to the Chicago Quilt Show today. No fabric, not even a fat quarter. I just couldn't pay $2.95 for a fat quarter, knowing I got all of this for $4.
