Hope you find lots of good things! Love to yard sale.

My mom found a blue and white quilt with damage and got it for a song. I took it and cut it up and made cushion covers for her porch swing.
You can take damaged quilts and use them for smaller projects- I think this is a great way to preserve someone's hard work!!

Must be the weekend for it. My MIL's neighborhood does the same thing. I've seen the crap she wants to sell. I think I stay home and sew :D
