I would never think of looking for fabric at "goodwill" until I saw postings and photo's on this site. I went to a new "goodwill" while here in MA and I found all of this.
Was it my lucky day...Most is 2+yds and the real pretty hse one is 8 3/4 yds. Total purchase of 25 yds of fabric $20...Thanks Ladies for putting me onto "goodwill"

I found fabric in our Goodwill today too and got the pink tag sale 50% off pink tag today. I got three diffrent types of red calico's and some muslim and I forgot what else.
all fabric is at least 2 yards or more. Spent less than $10.00 Oh a plate with a lid that had divided sections. Great for learning portion control. Have a great day, Huggies, Fay

Beautiful fabrics, and so nice to have so much yardage of them. Just never quit looking. Then to get it half off, you are a shopper indeed. :thumbup:

That's an amazing find. I haven't been so fortunate as to find fabric at Goodwill, and I travel with my husband for a living and go to all kinds of different Goodwill stores. Good job!

Our DAV (Disabled Veterans)Store has a 25 cent sale on Sundays. Certain color tags are a quarter or 5 for a buck.
Sometimes I get really lucky. Once found a bolt of beautiful dark green calico for $10.00. Woo hoo.........

NancyRose 04-27-2011 07:25 PM

You did better than I did--I looked but did not score today. It's a great feeling to find a bargain--congrats!

My husb and I have to go back next wk to that area...and you know I'm stopping back in. They had allot but I stopped myself...Now regret it.
They also had two Vintage sewing machines in cabinets...A redeye (I have) but it was a Treadle...for 99 and boy was I tempted but...I really have no rm for one.
The other is the only other vintage I'm looking for which was a "Rockateer" but some of the parts were off or missing it was 60 with cabinet. Now I'm rethinking that and really should give it another look if it's still there when I return. Probably won't be...But if it's meant to be it will be.
