Fabric stash for $1


 I came home with some more fabric from the Gramma Africa Sale!!  I really did not need any but it has been two years since the last one and I thought maybe just a few little things to support a good cause.  When I arrived one of the volunteers indicated that I could fill a bag for "one dollar" from a designated area of the hall.  The clear bag was as big as a grocery bag so I thought what the heck.  There were not many people there and the majority were wearing masks so I took a little walk around to see what I could find.  I managed to get all of this fabric into my bag.  Many others were not near as ambitious!!  These are cotton leftovers and small scraps which will work well in my quilting.  The black and white at the top right is at least two yards of 60" wide fabric which was stained but Mom's soap got the three little spots out.  All this fabric for a $1.  The five cones of thread was a $1 and the embroidery thread was a $1.  I paid $2 admission and got a great deal.  All the leftovers - there was a LOT!!! - were being picked up by the volunteers for the NEW second hand store in Sylvan Lake so that would be the next place to go shopping for fabric.  I will have to see if I can find out where they are.  Therese
