Just wanted to let you all know that if you are anywhere near Torch, Ohio on August 26th at 2:00 p.m., there will be an auction of 700 bolts of fabric and an entire store of notions and related sewing stuff. I know I should be keeping this information to myself...but I just had to share. Need to start hoarding my egg money!

Thanks for the info. Torch is around 2 hrs from me. Too bad it's an afternoon auction though. I wouldn't be able to be there and here for the kids to get off the bus. Bid well and think of me when you win.

Smiling & Waving,

I'm far from Ohio, but it sounds like fun.

Watch out though, auctions can get crazy high sometimes.

Depending on the bidders, it can get to a place where the best price doesn't even matter anymore, it's about who gets the winning bid, no matter what price!
