Score at the thrift store

I love scouring the thrift stores for bargains. I found this sack of fabric for $6. I weighed it and there was 7.5 pounds of material inside.




Sorting through the goodies was fun. Tucker helped.

There were two different cat fabrics inside!

Some "vintage" (probably 60s) too.

Tucker kindly modeled this beautiful piece of fabric.


Is purple my color?

Yes, my boy, is sure is!

That was a cool find. Tucker, purple is definitely your color and mine!

Oh, great find! Our mom loves to shop at Value Village too, though she doesn't sew or do crafts, so fabric isn't what she normally looks for. She HAS found a few pieces in the past, though, for projects for HER mom, when she visits.

So what shall you make with some of it, do you know?
