Bargain Garden
Bargain Garden Prices Are Now
$6.50 Per Pound For Most Fabric/Notions
The locker is bursting at the seams!
We are very grateful to all of you who have donated fabric, notions, sewing and craft supplies to the Bargain Garden this year. As happens every year, we have come to the point of not being able to receive and store more donations for the upcoming show.
Those of you who have contacted us already and are in the process of readying donations, we will complete those donations. If you have a donation ready and were about to contact us, please make that contact by November 15. After November 15, we will have to ask you to hold on to those donations until after the show in February.
Donations are NOT accepted during set up for the show or on show days.
Bargain Garden is one of the primary fundraising efforts that make the annual Quilt Show possible. To help ensure we have the funds for future shows, we will be raising our Bargain Garden price per pound for most items to $6.50 per pound.
A big thank you, again, to those who have supported the Guild and the Quilt Show by donating fabric, notions, and sewing/craft supplies to the Bargain Garden. We look forward to receiving more donations in March 2025.
The PVQA Bargain Garden is part of a long tradition for quilt guilds across the United States. Members of the guild, and members of the community, donate quilting, sewing and craft fabric/supplies to the guild. Sometimes folks have cleaned out their sewing rooms. Sometimes heirs want to find a good home for quilting and sewing supplies that won’t be used by the family.
PVQA sells these items to benefit the guild. Bargain Garden also provides an opportunity for quilters on a fixed income to find low-cost, quality fabric and supplies. Bargain Garden also provides some fabric to the other Community Outreach groups.
The biggest Bargain Garden sale is at the annual Pajaro Valley Quilt Association Quilt Show in February of each year. Some items are sold at monthly meetings. Other items may be sold on eBay, or similar avenues.
PVQA is now a 501(c)3 charity! Your donation may be tax deductible.
Sorry, donations of magazines cannot be accepted; they have become difficult to sell or recycle.
Binders of magazine pages are also not accepted.
Please be considerate of our volunteers. Do not donate items with open/loose rotary or razor blades, unfinished garments with pins still in, loose pins and needles, and other unprotected sharp objects.
