Wow! Nice stuff! I have never been so lucky... no fabric, no quilts, no featherweights.

Great finds. I must be hitting my area at all the wrong times. So glad you hit the jackpot.

Don't forget the church rummage sales. And some bigger yard sales too

The key to the great finds is, don't go expecting to find anything. You will be pleasantly surprised and it works everytime. Well that's how it goes for me. If I go in expecting to find a deal/steal it turns out a bummer trip.
Great haul by the way :thumbup:

We have a goodwill in the same shopping center as a LQS. I always stop there before going on to the shop. I can usually find double the "fabric" for half the price. :)
