Here's a funny story about the fabrics tho. When I talked to Patti, I gave her a budget of $400-$500 for the fabric (not including the backing of course). When all was said and done, it was $510 including shipping. I told her no problem, charge my credit card. Which turns out to $760 Canadian LOL ... PLUS I had to pay $95 on duty.

I'm not complaining at all because here in Canada, we just don't have the selection of fabrics that you have in the states!
Just so you know, Erin at Around the Block in Beaverlodge, AB also does gorgeous custom kits for Judy Neimeyer quilts. I found her prices reasonable, and it avoids the exchange and duty uncertainty. Obviously you won't be needing another any time soon, but I wanted to mention it for any other Canadians inspired by this thread
