Two great finds yesterday
 

My mother had a Martha Washington cabinet that I inherited when she passed away... unfortunately it went through a flood in about 1998 and couldn't be saved. I've looked for a reasonably priced one for years. Yesterday I was able to purchase one for only $60, but it does need to be refinished. Someone along the line tried to do it and there are actually three different shades of stain on it. I could chalk paint it antique white or black, but actually prefer the wood tone. At, any rate I'm doing my happy dance.
Stopped in at Salvation Army to browse and found 6 yards of a green with a peach/pink rose on it with a brand name of Fabric Traditions for only $4.98 for the whole thing. Yes!! Backing for a quilt I want to make.
I never find bargains like this...it must have been my day to happy dance.
Today I'll go back and have a re-look at a picture frame for the cross stitch sampler I finished during the night ( I'm a non sleeper). Maybe it will be another lucky day.

Woohoo! Lovely cabinet and fabric both. I'd be doing a dance myself.

Such lucky finds, it was your day !

Certainly was your lucky day. I have that Martha Washington cabinet also, just love it. That fabric was also a great find.

OH my word, i am in love with that cabinet. It is outstanding!! What a find. I miss my antique furniture pieces but i had them for over 30 years, it was time for others to enjoy them. Hoping they all found good homes.

Love the cabinet, the wood look too, the pretty fabric and the GREAT deals you got!!!

I have the same MW cabinet and I know I paid more than you did for it !
That fabric is beautiful. Good for you!

What a find! I am soooo happy for you. Depending on where you are this might be the best time of the year to redo this precious treasure. Great find on the fabric too.

Wow, beautiful finds indeed! I hope you bought a lottery ticket too.
