Now you have to understand that I live in a town of 25,000 and the nearest large town is 90+ miles away. But on Friday I saw an ad for a yard sale that said "fabric" along with many other things. I looked up the address on my paper map and could not find it. It is in an even smaller town about 12-13 miles away. So while my son and I were out, he looked it up on his I-phone (love those things) and found it. It came up "Quilters Retreat", so I said "We're going". Found it out on a dirt road. She is a former quilter, professional long armer, and was downsizing because she was just burned out. She was selling grocery bags full of material for $5. I finally quit at 6 bags (wish I had grabbed more). Woke up Saturday morning and decided to go back. Drove all that way to find she had sold it all (didn't surprise me at all).
