Actually, I went back to the same Garage Sale from 2 weeks ago (where I had previously bought a boatload of material). They did not have a lot of new material, but I did manage to pick up over 83 yards of material for about 37 CENTS A YARD!

One bad thing -- owners teenage son (maybe 17?) was sitting inside the garage and not wanting to move a muscle. I added up the prices and counted the fat quarters. He couldn't even find a place to set my material down! But he did condone to find change...or I would have had to put something back! Mothers -- don't let your children be the sole seller at your garage sale! You could lose your shirt!

The ABC Dalamtion is 2.5 yds, Cherries is 2 yds

40 Fat Quarters at 10 cents apiece

Eight +2 yd pieces

Stars/Moons almost 7 yds, GO! Dick & Jane is over 8 yds

This will make a cute baby blanket - $1 for the panel!
