Description

The listing, Mystery Package of Assorted Fabrics has ended.

This is for a flat rate priority envelope of remnant fabrics. This envelope holds a lot of fabric ! This will be left over pieces of fabrics, at least a fat quarter in size, of 100% cotton fabrics that are all NEW. There will be calicos, novelty, and holiday fabrics. These will be great for quilting or doll clothes or that craft project you are working on.
This is a request because so many of you have sent me messages asking for "one more fabric auction"; so here it is.
This will be my last one for a while so get it while it is here!

** Tell you what, I will make it fun like the other tiered ones I had!**
I will make this a tiered one where with every new fan, leave a comment, and with every bid, leave a comment. I cannot follow the bidding, but I can follow the comments. So leave a comment when you bid and when a new fan signs up. With each of these things happening I will add another piece of fabric.
I will add more to the package and it can end up being a LARGE FLAT RATE BOX!!
So, right now we have a flat rate priority envelope up for auction. Send your friends to fan me and tell them to leave a comment. Tell them to bid and leave a comment.
I will be adding little challenges and telling you what I am adding as often as I can.
Let's get started! When it reaches 500 credits I will add a bonus notion, 600 another bonus, 700 another bonus..... See where I am going with this?

Just fanned ya!

11th add on ! thanks Indianspirit

Nov 9th, 2011 at 4:57:19 PM PST by

Great auction! Budded earlier but not enough credits now"

Nov 15th, 2011 at 9:48:49 AM PST by

sorry. I will be doing another in a cpl months. Just have too much going on here with the holidays and boxes still to unpack right now. Maybe next time. I'll keep checking your site and see what goodies you have to bid on. I have a new Cars 2 DVD up for auction. NIP

Nov 15th, 2011 at 12:47:59 PM PST by

Now, it looks like everyone may not have commented with every single bid so I am going to add bonus fabric to this box. Just add a comment that says bid and the total the bidder says after your bid, plz.
Right now the bidding is at 1510 with tonyasown being the high bidder. (we don't know what her highest bid is yet)
We also hit 500: add a bonus notion,600: add a bonus notion,700, 800, 900, 1000, 1100, 1200, 1300, 1400, 1500 Which gives us a total of 11 bonus notions !
This is going to be a nice large parcel. Don't be afraid to do a little bid and leave a comment. If you bid three times in a row, just comment: ' bid 3 times in a row. right now the bidding is at _________' I can't be on here all the time so help me out. I want to be fair and give a piece of fabric with every bid, so help me out so I can be fair to the winner:-)

Nov 13th, 2011 at 5:28:57 PM PST by

I want to wish everyone a nice evening. I hope you are all making plans for a nice Thanksgiving day. Enjoy your family and give thanks for all our many blessings. Everytime I start to make a mental list of all I have to be thankful for I become very humble and want to call all my loved ones and tell them how fortunate I am for all the love they give me. May you all be blessed :-D

Nov 15th, 2011 at 8:23:57 PM PST by

Great !

Nov 16th, 2011 at 4:24:54 AM PST by

I have a question I have not seen. what is a fat quarter? I have made quilts but usually with painted squares from my mil estate not a lot of patterned pieces. thanks and going to bid sg

Nov 15th, 2011 at 8:22:26 PM PST by

NP A fat Quarter is when one takes, for example, a whole yard of fabric, cut it in half (down to 18 inches) . If I was to cut a 'regular' quarter yard of fabric I would cut it again while in this placement making the final size nine inches, along the salvage, by 44-45 inches in width. This makes a short wide piece of fabric.
Now, a 'fat quarter' is when one takes the half yard piece of fabric and opens it up and then one makes the final cut on the fold. The final size of the fabric is 18 inches by 22 .
That is why we call it a 'fat' quarter since it isn't a long narrow pieces but rather a nearly perfect square.
If the winner chooses I can give the winner a full yard of uncut fabric rather than 4 'fat' quarters. Make some comments and I can go that way for some of the winning fabric. 4 fat quarters = 1 full yard

Nov 16th, 2011 at 4:32:17 AM PST by

well, bid a total of 3x just now and i'm out of credits. mamacarp outbid me. Good luck to everyone else!!!

Nov 16th, 2011 at 1:32:07 PM PST by

Don't forget the raffle for the free gift. I'm drawing at least one name on Sat.

Nov 16th, 2011 at 4:24:42 PM PST by

Here is the tally for the fabric: 20 yards with the bonuses for the new fans and the extra tossed in. The notions will be added up at the end of the auction. Quite easy to do.
Everyone who has bid more than 5 times, send me your address and Miss Kendra will pick the winner Sat morning and the package will be shipped out parcel post with confirmation and insurance against loss. and.......

Nov 16th, 2011 at 4:31:34 PM PST by

I have come across a coupon for kmart for $5 off a $50. purchase. *** I am not auctioning the coupon so no worry. I just came across this today *** The coupon is for anything in the store so maybe it will help cover the tax on your purchase. I thought it was pretty cool and grabbed a couple and thought I would share.
Don't forget to look at the Cars2 DVD that I have listed. It is New and still wrapped in the plastic. It is free and free shipping also.
Have a great evening everyone :-)

Nov 16th, 2011 at 4:34:27 PM PST by

I have to go for today so this is where the tally stands right now:
one package plus 32 pieces added on ** with some bonus fabric that will be tossed in at the end of the auction.
37 bonus notions with the credits just over 4200.
The higher this goes the more freebies I will be adding to the package. There will be lots of everything you will need for sewing. Sewing machine needles, buttons, lots of dual duty threads, etc. Plus, I will be reading your Santas' wish list and picking what I can to add to the package. If you happen to be local ....let me know and I will hook you up :-)

Nov 14th, 2011 at 6:29:10 PM PST by

one package, one add on with 32 pieces
37 notions
credits just over 4200
We can double the size of the package with new people stopping by to fan and with just a single bid. Let me know how many times you bid like the bidders did today and you will see the package double in size. I will make this package as large as you want it !! tyvm
Have a wonderful evening and a better tomorrow ;-D

Nov 14th, 2011 at 6:31:26 PM PST by

This is great !! We now have 32 pcs added to the second box. I just might be sending a huge parcel post after all !! Yea, I see a little space in my sewing room opening up! Don't stop now, I want to ship out 30 lbs of fabric and notions to the winner !! Maybe more, you call the shots on this one :-) I see lots of thread, zippers, buttons, etc...... mystery notions added to the package.... ALL BRAND NEW NOTIONS - I DON'T DO RECYCLED OR USED ITEMS IN MY AUCTIONS.... All are NIP or Brand New items - "unused"

Nov 14th, 2011 at 6:18:26 PM PST by

Just a question for you bidders. Would you be interested in NEW Uncut patterns for children ? That is one of the mystery items that I just might add to the package. This will only be added if you are the winner and you would be interested. So, if you are serious about winning this; leave a comment.
Would you be interested in children's novelty fabric? Corduroy? Jean fabric? Leave your comments. As I go through the tubs of fabric I will take into consideration your comments.
Again, thanks for bidding. Yes, I noticed the credits and I need to tally up how many notions are going to be added. It's going to be a lot!! :-D

Nov 14th, 2011 at 6:21:42 PM PST by

Nov 14th, 2011 at 8:07:44 AM PST by

mamacarp: 5 bids = so that makes it 33 pcs added in the second package! ty

Nov 14th, 2011 at 6:14:06 PM PST by

The added on pieces of fabric are approximately a fat quarter yd. So we are looking at the original package PLUS over 6 1/2 yards of fabric added on. Don't forget, you also have 11 notions being added to the package as a BONUS ! With every 100 credit increment I now add the bonus of one notion to the package. There will also be surprise bonuses added to the package due to 'not everyone' informing me when they bid.
So, bid and add to the package :-D
