You are an awesome thrift store shopper. I love what you find! Keep up the good work. I wish you lived closer so you could shop for me, or that I had time to shop the ones we have here.

Happy quilting!

I only found out recently that thrift shops were a place to shop. You did a great job and with only two shops.

Today I was playing with my fabric find and there isn't any brown gingham the camera made the light green look brown. I was disappointed.
