WOW !Great find. Wish I could find such a good haul. In this rural community, we don't have access to fabric shops or quilt shops so NO ONE wants to sell their stash !I can dream !

There is only one nearly completed one, one or two less-completed partials and a bunch of cut pieces in a baggie. The lady who sold them said she had a decorated sweat-shirt business, big time, a few years back.

I was just out in my screenhouse, where I put the fabrics temporarily to sort and air them out (worried they might be smoky but aren't :D ). Because some of you asked about the fish fabric I took a couple of pics. I plan to make a quilt and pillow for our basement rec room when we get it completed (I'm not holding my breath on that). The main fabric is two panels; I'm going to make a quilt for state chapter of fisheries professional society fundraiser.
