Default Queen Mary sized stash

Over the last eons, I kept saying I was buying my retirement stash, because I knew with prices constantly increasing, once I did retire I wouldn't be able to afford it. Then Dad passed away, my quilting bubby, and I only did extremely minimal sewing/quilting, but that didn't stop me from buying ... my hubby is an enabler! He then said once we both retire, he wanted to help like Dad did and even sew some blocks. Now we have the Queen Mary of Stashes or whatever cruise ship is outlandish. We stopped at Marshall's Dry Goids in Batesville, Arkansas (if you know, you know, if not, check them out) last fall and whoop, a full shopping cart later (wholesale prices to everyone with bulk flat fold purchases) my ridiculous hubby actually asked where the other cart was! So needless to say, since we both are fully retired and hopefully all surgeries are over, the quilting mojo juices are being kick started with this Boom. Our son that is our executor, already knows the size of it and wishes we live long abd quilt alot.
