Thought you might enjoy seeing my 30+ quilts for sale and how we displayed them at our Neighborhood-wide Garage Sale on Fri & Sat.

I only sold 4 of them, but had a great time talking to wonderful quilters. And got lots of questions about how-to do something specific, how long it takes to do a quilt, etc.

I know that all my quilts were fairly priced as I got many comments about how reasonable they were. I priced them to get the cost of the materials in the quilt back, not my labor.

Have several men who want me to make them T-Shirt quilts....we'll see! Thanks for looking.

Pretty. I wish I lived closer and could have come to your garage sale. We would have had a lot to talk about. :lol:

If more garage sells looked like yours I'd be stopping a lot more at them. It looks simply beautiful. What an wonderful accomplishment with all your sewing treasures.
