Your lucky day. I too shop at Sally's Boutique and find a few pieces of fabric but nothing like you found.

I did this very same thing this summer, but mine was for $5 i thought i went to heaven! :)

Lucky you! I don't know who prices the stuff at my Salvation Army, but they want as much as Joann's for fabric. I keep trying, but rarely find anything worthwhile.

Wish me luck. I need some good stuff to make more Quilts for Kids.

So being the wonderful wife that I am, I got him another pair of pants, and took them up to his office. He felt bad for making me come out in the bad weather, gave me $10 to stop & get lunch, but I have food at home, and went to Salvation Army instead.
I went directly to the fabric/craft section, and guess what I got!
1 yard of D.Morgan fabric (For Springs Ind.) A Little Bit of Heaven
2 yards of vintage pink fabric with blue sprays of flowers on them
3 fat quarters of blue/white flower/stripe fabric
2 yards of Robert Kaufman 50's repo fabric
1 3/4 yard small whale light brown cord fabric
3 yards of red, green & white homespun
Total price? $3.98 Today turned out to be a pretty good day!

Please tell DH that they now make correction tape. No mess! Hugs!

Woohoo!

I must say you did. I go to used stores all the time and haven't had that good of luck. Congrats! I keep looking and I don't get discouraged. Maybe tomorrow I will be the lucky one.
I'm going to yard sales and a new Goodwill near by.

Never find bargains like that, probably because I'm home bound, get every thing on-line. Congrats on your great find
