My Yard Sale Haul
 
1 Attachment(s)
I was headed to do errands and came across this yard sale. BOY...am I glad I stopped. I got two huge boxes of fabric for $40.00. Each cut had the measurement pinned to it. I counted out over 150 yards in just one box. So guess the second box had about the same amount. One piece was 17 yards. I figure I got about 300 yards of various prints at a price of about 14 cents per yard/ YEAH FOR ME!!!!!

Way to Go!!

Awesome haul!! The one and only time I found something sewing related at a garage sale ... was the time I found an almost new Husqvarna serger. When the guy took it off the shelf and out of the box to show me, he tripped on wireing and smashed it against his landscape blocks. I felt sooo bad for him!!

ppquilter 10-25-2012 01:20 PM

WOWEE! Good for you!

Lucky find.

Just a quick comment. Take the pins holding the yardage amounts out before they have a chance to rust.

maryb119 10-25-2012 03:03 PM

Great find!!! What are you going to make first?

RedGarnet222 10-25-2012 03:05 PM

Sheesh! That deal is unbelieveable! Lucky you, I never get great deals like that.

Treasureit 10-25-2012 03:08 PM

FUN isn't it??? I have had these buys from time to time...for all who want to find them...you must get out of the sewing room and go to yard sales!!
