I got some great fabric recently while on a goodwill trip with my mom. Two packages of fabric, one for $4 and one for $5 yielded 44 fat quarters and 5 one yard cuts!!!!! Three were Connecting Threads kits(still had patterns included), and most were grouped and folded together as if they were for a specific project. I always wonder who got rid of them and why, and really wish I knew what the projects were. Now I have to find projects for them........

Wow!! What a find. I'm going to have to go to Goodwill.

WOW!!! That is an AWESOME find!!!! I want to shop at YOUR goodwill!

Me too!
i don't recognize the connecting threads fabric at all.

WOW!!
Lucky you!

Lucky you...I have been looking; but never find anything like that around here.

What a haul!!

Makes you wonder if someone made a boo-boo and put them in the wrong bag to donate!!

I'll be checking out the goodwills more often also!!

Wow. Great find. I think things like this are from quilters who've passed away and the family has to get rid of lots of "stuff". I don't think most people would consider fabric or notions "heirlooms" so they're donated (or thrown away:<). I'm sure the quilter would be very happy to know her fabric will be loved.

WOO HOO :mrgreen: Major score :thumbup:

Yeah, me too! What a wonderful find you have there!

BONUS, great find

Our Goodwill charges way too much for everything! Sometimes you can find new stuff at the store cheaper! Great find! Love the colors! :thumbup: :thumbup: :thumbup:

WOW fabulous find. I especially love the hoffman brights 4th from the right! And the black & red set. Kudos to you!

Wow! did you score big time! :thumbup: I bet you were excited when you came across those wonderful finds. Good colors too! Happy sewing!

Wow! and I thought the two pieces I found at Goodwill last month for $2 was a good buy. Those are great!

Lucky you!! I love Sally's (ie goodwill) although I rarely make finds like that! What a great economical addition to your stash. I too wonder how these kinds of things get there. Can only assume the original purchaser passed away and the family simply gave it to Goodwill or Sally's.

Wow!! What a find. :)

What a great find. Lucky you.

That is what our local good will is like. But there is still a thrift store and the net town down the road. It has two goodwills.

I should clarify, I said goodwill generically- it was Thrift town in Dallas. But I check every thrift store for fabric, often it is hanging with sheets, and have found some bigger cuts- 3-4 yds a couple of times.

Those are beautiful fabrics. Lucky you.

Whoa, what a find!

What a HAUL, I never find anything like that at our Goodwill!

From one thrift store shopper to another...YooHoo...great find you did good.

That is the best find yet at GoodWill!
Awesome!

WOW. I thought I did good, but you did AWESOME!

WOW!! What a great find!! I have never found any good fabrics at my Goodwill store. I will have to keep checking now and then. You certainly hit the jackpot!!

Holy Cow!!! Lucky you!!!

You got a real find. Whoohoo!

wow what a great find

That was the find of the year. Lucky you.

I'm going to look for Goodwill stores close to me and start shopping there.

Congrats!! Great find.

Oh, how fantastic for you!!!! Great looking fabrics.

what a wonderful find!!

That is where I found my last three batches of fabric. I got tons of fat quarters and lots of 1/2 yard pieces to cut up into 3 or 4 inch squares for projects later on.

You are so lucky. What Goodwill is this?!?!

It is Thrift town in Dallas on Westmoreland.

Cool beans and great find :thumbup: :D

Wow, good find. We are getting a new Goodwill store 8 miles from our house. We were in town today and they had the name on the building and big sign opening soon.
