Wow that really cool. I love yard sales. Specially ones that end up so well. Whatcha gonna make? :thumbup:
|
I am going to TRY to hold off till I get the rest and then put like colors together and make some patchwork type bow tucks bags. Also with some of the textures I want to make some baby toys and small texture blankets about 12X12 or so just so little ones can be touchy feely, These I will donate to some place that works with babies, Maybe WIC.

only thing better than free,, is there is more of it!!! definitely the mother load!!!
|
maybe when you go back for the rest, there will be even more samples.......have fun!

if you go into a furniture store where they have decorating books with fabric swatches, they clear them out a couple times a year. Ask them to call you and they will give them to you. Also if you go to a recovering business, they may give you all the odds and ends. We are talking big pieces here Ladies! Big bags full! What ever you don't use you donate to the humane shelter for the dogs and cats.

YAY!!! How fun it that?

The lady had an interior designing shop and these were the discontinued samples. Lots of types of fabrics. I also picked out several from my Granddaughter. They will make great Bow tucks bags in a patchwork style!! I am in 7th heaven!!
