Default What was I thinking?

I found an ad on Craigslist for quilting fabric. I met the lady yesterday and picked up 5 trash bags of fabric. I paid $100 but there is easily several hundred dollars worth of fabric there. I started ironing it to put it away. I will never finish and don't know where I am going to put it. I keep telling my husband I'm collecting fabric for my retirement on a little over a year.

Several,of us bought the sewing room fabric of an elderly lady. We had enough for all 3 of us and lots to donate and share with friends.

Oh how exciting. You will have a wonderful time sorting it out and putting it away. Please take pictures when you are finished so we can see what a great bargain you got.
