My Thrift Shop finds
 
2 Attachment(s)
The darling tied doll quilt is about 22" square. The 1 1/2 yds of fleece is just perfect for a cover when my DGKs stay over - no sewing needed. They love fuzzy blankets. The aqua striped chintz is the perfect size and color to replace my couch pillow that fell apart in the washer after years of use. I only paid $3.50 for everything!! :thumbup: :)

I feel like I am the only one who doesn't find anything at the thrift shop. Guess my day is still coming!

Great finds, Nan! Whereabouts in the Twin Cities do you live? I have a daughter in Shakopee and another in St. Paul. We don't get up to visit either of them often enough!

Some days the thrift shops are a bust, and other days they're a gold mine. I just have my "circuit", know where to check in each store, and make regular "rounds". It works for me. At least enough of the time to keep me going back!
