Those wire drawer units are expensive. Now is the time to get organized and get using your new quilting stuff. Have FUN!

You made out like a bandit. Love estate sales. I'm going to an estate sale tomorrow. Asked if I could preview and possibly purchase or atleast put deposit. they said no. Will just have to take my chances.

*** QuiltnNan *** *** It is a little different from that one. Has 12 different blocks. *** *** I do not paper piece, so will probably not use it (was in a bag lot). *** *** I will offer it later in another heading. *** |
Congrats on your new acquisitions! Looks like you're going to have fun!
|
she looked like she never used them.....I see a lot of original packaging.
|
What a good buy--I do love to search through others sewing/quilting things !

|
I keep dreaming I will score like this!!
|
Jackpot!! Hope you get even more.u
|
Great deal.
|
WOW you got a real bargain. At least $150 worth of supplies.
|
Holy cow! Boy you got a great deal!!! Congrats!
|
WOW! You really got a deal! WTG! I answered a CL ad one time and the daughter was selling her mom's quilt things but had no idea about them. I offered to go over and help her. We kept in touch for awhile, but never made the connection. Sounded like she was overwhelmed and just gave up. I sure would have loved to see what she had though.. Congrats on your great purchases.
|
You're one lucky gal.
|
Awesome deal.
|
Mama must be turning over in her grave...apparently kids have no idea what quilting supplies cost...I am afraid that will happen to me...since my two boys and their wives are completely in the dark about quilting...lol...good for you that you got such a bargain..
|
Congrats on the great score!!
|
oh my goodness you hit the jackpot!!! Good for you.
|
Congratulations on your deal! Have fun!
|
What a haul! So good these things went to someone who will value and appreciate them. I have the 501 Quilt blocks book, a gift from my kids.
|
What an amazing deal you got.
|
Wonderful find. Congrats!!
|
Great find.
|
What a great find... Looks like you got a lot of treasures for your 30 bucks.
|
Wow! What a deal! Have fun with all of your new toys

*** Thanks for all the nice comments. *** *** I saw another ad for the area and looks like the same people, but did not see anything else that I need. *** *** O, BYW found and GW yesterday a complete Double Wedding Ring temples for $1.79. *** Angels must be smiling on me. *** *** Needed some luck as I start a new round of water therapy for my back after a wreck. *** |
You really got your money's worth!
|
Great find! I'm afraid that this will happen with my enormous stash as my children care nothing about sewing. Makes me sad.
|
What a great find.
|
Great deal...
