I went to a thrift store today and found a bargain bag in the craft/sewing aisle. Knowing that fabric prices are on the rise, I could not pass it up. Look at what I found.

The four colors were cut in squares 20 inches by 20 inches. There are 26 white, 13 yellow, 22 blue and 25 brown.

The next two are Christmas fabrics. The black has snowflakes on it (a Jo Ann's exclusive) and there are 5 yards there. The blue has snowmen on it and there are 5 1/2 yards of it. The blue is flannel and there are 4 yards of it.
Sum total of all was: $11.89

Wow. Great find. I'm going to my Goodwill in the morning. A lady who works there said they restock on Thursday. Hope I am as lucky as you were.
