Sounds like you have all sorts of fun stuff to play with!
I see totes, wall hangings, crazy quilts, and even a regular quilt or two in your future.
Have fun!

PS in the satins, are there any with bright or darker colors? If so PM me as I would like to buy or trade for them.

I have several blues and lavender/purples. Went to take photo and have to charge my battery. I can send them to you if that is colors you want. There is not a lot of fabric. There are a few squares like someone wanted to do a quilt. I will just sent them if the colors are OK. Send me your address.

Sounds like a good deal to me. Great for your purpose and if you only get to use 3 yards of fabric in a quilt or project, you are ahead of the game.

You can make a quilt tote and several purses out of the upholstery fabric. Remnants run about $6.00 per yard around here, so you did get a good deal.

You could make some grocery bags out of that fabric....works great. I have 5 in my car at all times.

I found a really cool grocery bag tutorial on Pinterest. I'll try to post a link later today.

since I love just touching fabrics, and thinking about them, I'd be in 7th heaven over that, and just think, the tote holds memories of all those that had to do with the fabric...hey, maybe I'll write another story about fabric one day soon. God bless and congrats on the wonderful buy. In addition to all the other suggestions, how about a slightly padded book cover with embellishments for gifts. Might be a good seller for a craft pattern 3 ring binder. YEA (My old gourd is still working) (somewhat) (Laughing at my silly self.)

I wouldn't mind finding a bargain like that.....great for tying out things before cutting your special fabrics.

Glad you made the offer.

A great find, especially if you know someone that makes doll clothes or children's clothes or costumes.

speaking of doll clothes you got my attention. i could see a couple of party dresses and maybe a flower girl's dress. i usually think in terms of 18" dolls, but i have others, too. great hobby!
