    Default Fabric Find

    Today at a garage sale there was one plastic container with fabric pieces. Lady said to make an offer. I said $5. She said it is yours....most pieces are at least 1/4 yard, some larger. As I was unfolding each piece and putting in washer I kept thinking of the things I could make with these!

    So what is whirling around in your brain--I would be doing that over and over until it all gets placed on shelves in my sewing room, unless I come up something before I get to the sewing room with it. Congratulations, $5 well spent.

    I see a child's quilt in your future - maybe an I-spy quilt.

    Lucky you!! I made many things out of the beautiful leaf fabric you have there on the left. I was sorry when I ran out of that one.
