I found all this stuff this morning for $10.00. This isn't even all the fabrics. There was also a scroll saw book for cut outs that I can use for tracing stuff for quilting. Score :-D

nice!!!!
I got all excited at a yard sale yesterday...lots of fabric, nice stuff, but prices were way too high - almost retail. She had $5-6 per yard and some even more up to $8. Books were $5 for the most, but I got one that slipped through as a $1 bargain - Carol Doak's paper piecing - signed by author. I told her that the prices were a little up there - she was selling stuff of her mom's and had no idea. She wasn't willing to drop it at that point - first day of sale...so I grabbed a couple of pieces and left her contact info just in case she wanted to dump the leftovers..who knows, huh?
