I am so excited that I was able to go garage selling after 2 1/2 years of not being able to....and so here are my finds.
Spool holder, now if you had read about my Daddy Pfaff, the spool holder was broken on its way here...this will solve that problem for 25 cents....whohooooo
I think I paid a dollar for this fabric, it is about 2 1/2 yards.
This is about 4 1/2 yards for three dollars...really nice feel to it too.
Here is Mickey on panels....just enough for a nice size quilt for a little one.
I had to control myself because at this moment I am trying to decide how in the world I am going to get all this fabric back with me. I haven't shown you all I have brought. Maybe tomorrow I will get organized and show how bad I have been since I have been here.
My mother and sister spent about 20 dollars and got a boat load of fabric, large pieces for backings. They sure were excited...and I was just trying to control myself in buying which I will confess was soooooooooooooooo hard to do.

Oh Barb.....it is time to seek professional help....come on by....I'll help you out. We'll drink coffee, eat Tim Tams and discuss your addiction while I engage in mine....LOL

great buys Barb. Is there a limit you can take back?
tee hee you did good!!
I"m glad you got to go to garage sales...I know how you've always enjoyed seeing what I've bought at them and wished you could go, too.
Great finds!
Great garage sale finds! I suppose you'll have to ship all your goodies home to yourself! LOL
Great finds. Maybe some space saver type bags will help. If it doesn't fit (or weighs too much) for your luggage you could see if it will fit into a large flat rate shipping box.
Wow Barb you got some great bargains.
My first machine would only take a small spool, so I made a spool holder from a block of wood and a wire clothes hanger. (Thank Goodness I wasn't living with Joan "no wire hangers" Crawford!)
The only way to resist at a yard sale, I've found, is to not go in the first place!!!LOL What a find - you needed a spool thingie and you found one!!!! Good thing you did go!!!!
I want to go garage sale-ing too. What a good haul you made!
I like the stuff you got. Looks like you are in a stripe mode. Have fun packing!
Good deals. You will always find a way to get you material home. Can't wait to see what else you bought.LOL
I love to take $10.00 and see what I can find! Lots of garage sales around here. You found some wonderful items.
Excellent deals! Like kizmet finding that spool holder, eh! I can't wait for garage sales to start up here. Been too rainy of late, but I have my mad money stash ready!
Don't you love garage sales? Good stuff, great prices.

Looks like you had fun, great shopping deals. This weekend should start garage sales here for us....can't wait.
ah hah....more to add to your stash! good for you!
Knowing how much you love to get packages in the mail :o), I suggest you send all your goodies in a priority box (or two lol). You'll have the joy of finding them twice that way! By the by, my son and I had a great afternoon together on Mother's Day, thanks!
Great finds in your yard saling - looks like a lot of fun!
I am totally impressed with your Thread Holder buy ! ! !
WHAT a STEAL !!!!!
Hugs & ♥♥♥s,
Gerry
