Pam--It sounds like an excellent deal and the Fat Quarter Shop is very reputable. I have bought from them before. Be sure to let us know what you get!!

Nope, there is no indication of what fabric or color but, I like most of the fabric collections they have. I'm sure I won't be disappointed. At least I hope not.

Dang... I already ordered the 8 1/2 yds of Harvest Home this morning.

Oh boy, I can't wait to see the pictures. I get almost as excited about other people fabric buys as I get about my own.

It came today in a nice big box. I was outside doing some gardening when the truck pulled. Luckily I was just finishing or the weeds would be waiting for another day!

Anticipation... I made a pot of coffee while I looked at the unopened box. Got a cup, carried the box and coffee upstairs... then a co-worker called. After showing him online how I accomplished a toll free number routing request today and finally getting off the phone... I sat on the floor and starting taking out one piece at a time, checking each one, feeling it, looking at the collection if it was showing on the selvedge and laying them out by color.

Almost all of them are Moda, most are at least a quarter yard, either FQ size or WOF, some are 5" and more strips WOF. Overall I'm pretty happy with it for a stash for scrappy quilts and there sure is a wide selection. I recognize some of the fabrics from collections I have, or want, and it even has some of the bird eggs from the Aviary collection that I was thinking of getting for sashing posts in a design I did for that collection.

Guess what I'm doing this weekend? Organizing my stash again!

They are so pretty. What fun scrappy quilts you can make from that.
