I needed some binding for the white quilt I have planned, so my guy and I went to a Goodwill we haven't visited before to see if they had any in their craft section. There were lots of supplies bundled up in bags, and what I spotted in this one for $5.99 made me grab it.
I've been wanting some heavy duty kitchen gloves to wear to protect my hands when I scrub pots, but I wasn't willing to pay the $6.99 my market wants for them. This bundle had four new pairs in my size in sealed bags, plus two pot holders and a Kitchen Aid oven mitt (these retail for six bucks) in brand-new condition. I don't need the leather care kit, so I'll donate that back to our Goodwill, and I'm not sure what the sling thing is, but the rest made it a great buy.
This bundle was a bit pricier at $8.99, but you'll see why I bought it when I spread out everything.
The vintage binding, which was apparently $1.34 at Wal-Mart at some time in the past, currently retails new for $3.99 a package (so $23.94 worth.) These are the old 4-yard packages, too, versus the 3-yard Wrights puts out presently. They're all in new condition. The quilt pencil costs $4.99 new, and the heat-n-bond is $5.99 new, and I use both. The other notions are also very usable, especially the pack of embossing card stock, which is just the right size to make gift tags.
