I picked this DVD up for one dollar this weekend. Oh yeah, I’m going to be the life of any...
Read MoreI haven’t been going to garage sales as much as I’ve wanted to this year. On Saturday, I was out running errands and saw a sign for a block garage sale. I stopped by since it promised to have many sales in one area. Overall, it was pretty disappointing. I love to get books at garage sales and nobody had any. Don’t people read anymore?

Some of the patterns are a bit dated, but I think they could be easily updated. Some patterns have come back into fashion. The coolest thing about this book is written at the bottom of the cover.
