About a month or so ago after a long hot summer I got up on a Saturday morning, was having a me day and had a few dollars so I hit some yard sales. I was having lot's of fun and then I hit the mother of all yards sales if your a crafter that is. There was fabric, yarn and you name it there and the sweetest woman who was selling this. A life long crafter that just needed to get rid of some of her stash. We talked and laughed and shared story's almost as if we had always new each other. Then she mentioned she had lot's of buttons to go through. So I gave her my number for her to call me when she was ready with those buttons. About 2 weeks later she called and back to her home I went, more fabric, buttons, batting you name it. Well we got to talking and I told her that I had always wanted a dress form. But just couldn't pay the high cost at the fabric shop's. I have been searching thrift shops and such and no luck. So this past Saturday she called and told me she was getting more things together and I could come by about 1:00. So I was there. and let me tell you when I got there the first thing that caught my eye was a vintage dress form. She gave it to me. I could not have been more excited. We put it in the car and I brought it home so excited I could have burst.
So it is right good things happen to those who wait, may not happen today or this year but it will happen
