    The former owner is smiling with joy knowing
    that her stash went to such a good place!

    What beautiful projects are in the future!

    Good for you! You did great. As you said, I'm sure she would be happy that it was going to a quilter. I've picked up a few remnants at some sales, but never found much. We are all jealous.

    Oh wow! What a haul!!! You did exceptional on that sale, girl.
    I love the first stack. I am very jelous that you found so much in large pieces that you can actually use as a quilt.

    The seventies fabric? Well, It is fun and cheerful. I made many a skirt out of these back then. LOL! As a matter of fact, I still have the scraps left over upstairs in a box. LMBO ...

    HI , I'm new to the message board. I love to yard sale.
    Great find. But I want the sewing machine next to all the
    fabric. I bet it's a viking.

    I love to read all the ladies post. Now I can join you.
