    Default Looky What I Found:).....

    On the way home, we passed a church that was winding down their rummage sale. We stopped to look at what was left over & I was handed a bag & told..."go through & fill the bag up if you find anything & we'll give you a good price for it all". So this is what I found :

    6 plastic tumblers
    scrap cotton fabric
    dish towel
    183 zippers!!! A seamstress's dream! they were still in the packages & originally sold for .50-1.00 each (store price)...all sorts of colors & lengths. I'll be so stocked up on sewing supplies, that I will be using these zippers when I start sewing for grandkids.lol (which hasn't happened yet)

    I paid $2 for Everything

    If you go to Nancy's Notions website she has a book on zipper designs. Zippers are cut & used to make flower designs, etc. Nancy has a sewing show on PBS on Saturday's, here. A super good find!!
