Saturday morning we headed out to check out a few garage sales. We don't really need anything in particular, but it is fun to do. You just never know when you come across that perfect something!For a while we seemed to be on the same schedule as a truck with three men in it. They would arrive at a yard sale just before us or just after us. My husband thought they had probably left their wives at the mall and they were making their own entertainment--killing time while the wives shopped. We parted ways at a garage sale where they were looking and seemed very interested in a 6 ft high, 15 ft long Santa and reindeer Christmas yard display. When we left them I was chuckling--that will be the last time those wives leave those men alone garage sailing! I would love to have been there when they pulled up to the mall to pick up their wives with that huge yard display in the bed of that pickup!
I came across the garage sale of a quilter. Look at the fabric I found! All of the fabrics are brights--perfect for a kid's quilt--perfect for a donation quilt. I just need to find some time now to work on a quilt!
Those fabrics look great - can't believe you picked them up at a garage sale.
ReplyDeleteJust love the fabrics esp the green and purple polka dot. What could be better than a garage sale of a quilter?????
ReplyDeleteHow could she (he?) have parted with those beauties? Well, a sale for them and some cool fabrics for you! Way perfect for a kids donation quilts, Norma.
