Default Lots of fabric!

My aunt died a couple of years ago. My cousin just gave me her fabric. My son is storing it for me till we decide how to get it to my house. He is in Vegas and I am in No. CA
this is fabric from the 70's dbl knit, polyester, cotton & cotton blends. One box full of lace & trims. 27 boxes plus the bolts.

I love vintage and am suffering serious pangs of jealousy over an entire box of lace and trims; bet there are some real finds in there!

Even when you get it to your home, do you have enough space for all of it. I thought I had a lot, but I can't come close to this!

That is very nice to have all of your fabric to look through, and decide what all you want to make with it.

That is fantastic! You will have a ball going through all of this! Sorry your aunt died, but thrilled for your new stash! So glad it didn't get pitched in the trash. I'll be glad to meet them half way and bring it to you. LOL And of course be in on the looking.
