Default Adding to the stash

Out for a blood donation, thought I would treat myself to some thrift store shopping. The main one was really crowded, I think they are having the Easter sale, so I went to the smaller one. I lucked out, got 3 Fairfield 80-20 cotton battings (81 x 96"), plus all this fabric. It was on the "Bringing out cart" so I got there at the right time.
Plus it is run by an organization I support anyway, so it's like I gave them a donation and got presents in return. Total was about $57.

What a wonderful score! Yay for recycling. Any idea what you want to make or are you stashing for future needs (which is what I tend to do).

no ideas yet although I do love all those blues together, didn't notice it until I took the picture.

Woozers! Those look like really nice fabrics and a useful amount of yardage besides. Happy stitching. I like the blues too! very rich colors.
