Last week on Craigslist I found a lady offering 13 boxes of fabric for $40!! I emailed her and we met at a nearby McDonald's. She told me she found another box so now I was getting 14 boxes! She's a quilter, so much of it had been hers + some from an estate of a seamstress of some sort. Anyway, I brought it all home- spread it out in my living room and started sorting. My husband just about fainted when he got home! LOL! I ended up keeping 6 boxes for myself, gave one to a friend and sold the rest on CL Friday for $30!! I can't believe my deal! 7 boxes of cottons for $10!! Woohoo! I'm already putting it to good use in my controlled scrappy "square within a square". Just wanted to share..... I reorganized it all into boxes with labels- solids, prints, shashings/borders, etc. I feel so organized, it's almost scary!

Congrats! Quite a find!

That is wonderful!!! :D:D:D

Why would your DH almost faint? You got most of your money back and donated(very giving person) and sold the rest! Was it the amount of fabric? You had a great experience on CL, I keep looking in my area, but never find any deals!

WOO HOO :mrgreen: Great Deal

Any pics ? :shock:

wow, that is so way cool

DH nearly fainted because my LR was strewn with 14 boxes half unpacked. When he left for work that a.m. everything was neat as a pin. When he came home it looked like the fabric fairy had a crash at my house. :lol:

wow, good for you!!!! my turn, my turn...oh, yeah...small house. don't need 14 boxes that's for sure! :-D

That's great! Everyone needs a good bargain every now and then. It really motivates!

What a great find!!!
