We were in Daphne, Alabama also and they take all the fabrics and put them in comforter bags. I went into the store about a month ago and bought 3 bags full for $5.99 each. One of the bags had about 7 yards of black velveteen and 5 yards of red velveteen plus some beautiful drapery fabric which I will use for purses and totes. Some of the great fabric I might sell here on the board once I get home.

None of the goodwill stores that I "haunt" ever have fabric and I have never seen a sewing machine there.....how can they put these (sewing machines) on line for auction....wonder what store they grab them for. Besides that though it seems many of the things offered are a bit overpriced. I have seen the same stuff on shelves for a long time....

congrats on your awesome find,how about a picture....please

I never find good fabric at the thrift stores.....until this past Monday. Found 2 bags, each $2.99. They contained some yardage and some cutoffs. Also lots of lame and a couple of other fabrics....those will find a new home with a crafter who makes doll clothes. I'll deliver them to her this weekend.
The one fabric I remember using in the past. Now I will be able to use it for my little granddaughter!!! It is such a girly girl fabric.

Congrats on your find...Isn't it fun to find a good deal and cheap.....I go to the thrift stores often with my friend and it is surprising all the good things we find.....

Yesterday I took a stroll thru one of the larger chain thrift stores and OH MY, they certainly are proud of their items. They have recently moved to a larger location with better lighting and the store is very well organized but their prices are pretty silly for a thrift store. I was specifically looking for baskets and they had some, but price-wise I can buy new ones at the dollar store. I find that the "independent" thrift/second-hand stores have more reasonable prices...at least in my area.

Great find!!!!!

What an awesome find, congratulations. I need to find out if there are any thrift stores in my local area, haven't had much lucking getting out and getting acclimated to our new surroundings.

wow lucky you! what thrift was that I would love to pay a visit! lol

Great find and have fun making your chirstmas projects
