1/10/14 Oh my, Cuties. I just felt like going to the thrift store today, even though tomorrow is their big once a month bag sale. Someone had donated a stash of fabric and upholstery cording. For $60, I got 2 40 yard bolts of cotton, still in plastic wrapper; 2 partial bolts of 60" bright silk dupionis and 1 partial bolt of 60" batik in neutrals of beige and taupe. I'm on cloud 9. The lady in front of me in line had a grocery cart full of heavy upholstery fabrics (she makes draperies professionally). Wowie!
