There are more then 50 yards here. I did well. Most are Peter Pan and VIP's so not the best quality but good enough for a lot of things.

Sharon I was sooo blown away when I saw it. I will make it big enough for a throw but I am not sure what I will do with it from there. It is soooooo 70's ugly!!!!! When I was a teen I would have killed for that quilt. |
ummm, decisions decisions, I am eye balling a lot of it, mostly the pinks, peach and the blues.
|
Wow!! You got that at a yard sale?
I have never seen material at a yard sale around here. What a haul!!! :D :D :D Love the peach and the green. |
Goodness, that's a lot of material for a yard sale! Great score by you!
|
WOW!!
What a great find! |
You can always make some linus quilts...
Dare I ask...what'd ya pay for the haul? |
I am green with envy! Why don't I ever find anything like that?!
:?: |
aww, Kw, it's so sad...a quilter must have DIED!!!
How in the world did you rack up like that at a yard sale???? Good goobledy gosh...wheet whew! Just remember, it might not all make a great front, but you can always put it on the back! :shock: :mrgreen: |
What a score. I'm jealous. lol
|
What a find , your lucky day! I wish I could find yard sales like that.. :D
|
Woo Hoo!!! You did good!!! :D :D :D
|
What a great find! I stopped at one sale today, found a beautiful clock for my sewing room for a dollar! I was happy. :thumbup:
|
WOW!!! What a find! I especially love the peach colors, that will make a gorgeous quilt. I want to find a yard sale like that one! :mrgreen:
|
Yes a quilter did die. I felt kinda guilty when the son said $5.00 but then though she would be happy that it went to a quilter and will be used as she intended. I have washed and dried it all. The Linus quilt idea is a good one. I will look into that for the rest of the squares from the 70'rific quilt.
|
You certainly made up for all the crappy yard sales! Great score!!!!

Nice score!!! You can always make some donation quilts with them!!!
|
I am sure that it will all be put to good use, I can see quiet a few great things come out of the fabric. It is great that it went to someone that knows what to do with it.
|
OH WOW! YOU SCORED BIG TIME KIDDO :thumbup: :thumbup: :thumbup:
|
Wowsers! Guess that is why I should take a few minutes to go to some sales! My neighbor got 5 1/2 yards for fifty cents last week. I am sure the lady would be happy to know it went to a quilter who will appreciate it.
|
WOW! 5 bucks??? Can you feel the cyber envy?
|
WOW -- $5 -- you did better than good!!
|
:mrgreen: :mrgreen: :mrgreen:

Too bad you didn't live closer to me - I have loads more fabric than that at my yard sale! I decided to do stash busting and sold a good 80 yards or so at the last yard sale - and that didn't even put a dent in my stash! Our next sale is going to be in a few weeks... I'm going to break out more fabric and try to find loving homes for it. I think the fabric was the biggest hit I had at least for my part of the yard sale. I'm looking forward to the next one. I even have two bolts of fabric that I'm planning on finding homes for - I need to put a sign on that next time - will cut pieces as needed - that will help that sell a bit better I'm sure! I better bring my rotary cutter and my cutting mat next time too!! :lol:
Great score though! It all looks beautiful! There are yard sales out there that have awesome craft supplies - that reminds me I'm dying to find out how my friend did yesterday - they were going to a sale that listed fabric in the items for sale... I wonder what she found!! |
The former owner is smiling with joy knowing
that her stash went to such a good place! What beautiful projects are in the future! |
I think you did great! Love all the pinks.
|
Good for you! You did great. As you said, I'm sure she would be happy that it was going to a quilter. I've picked up a few remnants at some sales, but never found much. We are all jealous.
|
Oh wow! What a haul!!! You did exceptional on that sale, girl.
I love the first stack. I am very jelous that you found so much in large pieces that you can actually use as a quilt. The seventies fabric? Well, It is fun and cheerful. I made many a skirt out of these back then. LOL! As a matter of fact, I still have the scraps left over upstairs in a box. LMBO ... |
Beautiful fabrics. What a great find.
|
Lucky you! Very nice fabrics.... My best garage sale find was a Featherweight several years ago...again a quilter had passed away..........
|
ahhhhhhhhhhhh! I am missing out on all the bargains. A featherweight! Gonna have to do better on this end! For sure, but I am happy for all the finds! :-o
|
Wow!!! Good for you!!!! :D I thought I was doing good the other day when I got a big box with big scraps/fat quarters for $7! lol!!!!!
|
HI , I'm new to the message board. I love to yard sale.
Great find. But I want the sewing machine next to all the fabric. I bet it's a viking. I love to read all the ladies post. Now I can join you. |
