The
first thing to greet us was a sign announcing everything was 50% off the price
it was marked. As we walked into the center there it was – yarn, vintage
patterns, cross-stitch supplies, thread, I could go on and on about all the
wonderful things that were waiting for me to look at (umm buy but we will get
to that in a minute). So after filling up a basket just in the first room I
looked through the next room and it was a large open room full of nothing but
fabric.
The
fabric was $1, $2, or $5 per yard but remember I had seen that wonderful 50% of
sign so it was actually $0.50, $1, or $2.50. The best part was the swimming
pools and boxes filled with scrap fabric and some were big pieces. How much for
the scrap fabric you asked – you could fill a trash bag for $1 – make that
$0.50 because it was 50% off. I walked away with two bags of fabric for $1. So
are you ready to see the fun my mom and I had – keep going down and I will show
you what I bought!! J
Welcome to Threadfest!
Look at all the wonderful
goodies and this is only half the room!
Are you ready – Here is the
fabric room.
Me and my sweet Mom digging
through scraps – what fun!
Ok, so
I told you I would show you what I purchased. I was able to donate $60 but look at
all I was able to purchase. You are reading it correct – I paid $5 for each of
the small sewing machines and $7.50 for the Singer sewing box.
Everyone meet my big boy Gordon. As I was taking
pictures he decided he wanted to make sure he made the cut for the blog and
thought my new toy was a great place to scratch his head. Then he knows when
the camera is out it is time to pose. He is a handful can you tell?
I
signed up to be on the mailing list for Threadfest so hopefully in the fall I
can give you a heads up of when they are holding the next sale for those in the
Middle Tennessee area. If you have items to donate you can drop them by any time
while they are open. For more information please visit there blog – FiftyForward Knowles Threadfest.
