    Very rarely these days do I find anything good as far as fabrics go at the Goodwill. Two weeks ago I bought a package of remnants there and it had two panels in it for those fabric softy books for toddlers in it. A 5 Funky Monkey panel and a bunny counting one.
    We were in the store rather early yesterday I think the store was open for about 20 minutes when I snagged all that fabric. It was just put out on the rack.

    Lucky day for you I am sure you will make something wonderful from it. Our local Goodwill stores have raised their prices so much I don't frequent them much..

    If I had had that kind of luck, I would have thought I had died and gone to heaven. Never happen here, that's for sure.

    Wonderful find, the best I have done is a very large ball of fabric strips rolled into a ball, at the resale store. It was 2.99. Thought I found a deal, but your deal goes to the next level! You have to wonder why people get rid of this stuff. I always thought if I could not use it I would like it to go to someplace that would use it and be happy. The only thing with that is that in most cases it has to be shipped and the price is outrageous to send. Have to fine tune my plan eventually.
