Each of those flats with the fabric had at LEAST 25 yards each. It didn't look like it - but its true - another friend got a small one and I think there was more than that. Evidentally, this lady was known as the "best quilter" in Missouri. I didn't know her, but I'm sure she had a chuckle when she looks down and saw all the quilters salivating over her "treasures" - so! When you seee an auction advertised - EXPLORE it! -

I'm green with stash envy now. But I don't think I could cope with that much fabric!

Oh my gosh. That could be me in a few years. I definitely need an intervention.

Now I don't feel so bad looking around my sewing room. I wish I could have seen that in person. Did you buy anything???

Can you say "Hoarder"? What good could she have done with the money she had tied up in fabric. Makes me rethink my own stash.

I feel a bit better now. I sometimes feel guilty about my hobby. I'm sure she enjoyed having her own private quilt shop to peruse through. If she had the money and didn't have to eat cat food at every sitting. Good for her! And good for you for getting some nice things;>
