Fabric Hunting and breakfast at Pancake House

The Refuge House quilters decided to spend a day shopping for fabric at estate sales and starting off with breakfast at the Pancake House. For more photos of the day, you can look here. It was supposed to be more of an exploration of local estate sales, but in my search for estate sales, I found a sewing guild's yearly fabric sale. We couldn't pass up that opportunity. Sometimes things are advertised to sound better than they really are, but this sale did not disappoint. They had tons of fabric in the front and back yard and most of it was around $1/yd. Most of the fabric pictured here is from that sale. We also hit a discount fabric store on our way to the estate sales and got a few more yards of great fabric to use on our quilts. All in all, it was a great day for the fabric search.

The ladies at the sewing guild's sale were floored that a group of girls would travel together in search of yard sales and they were also surprised that we bought so much of their fabric.
