    I found some solids at my local Goodwill store last week. Each piece was 1 or 2 yards. The store had them hanging on pants hangers. I was looking for fabric in bags. I did get the thick facing material in a bag. I use it for my potholders.

    I hope I post this right. :lol:

    Great find. For me it takes lots of trips to lots of different thrift stores and sometimes I get lucky.
