You brought something to my mind that I should look at. What a job.

I don't want to.
I don't want to admit to myself and others just how much I have. :o)

Scary when you think about it itemized

It so depends on how much you really keep in your "stash"....It could easily be somewhere between $5-10 thousand! No clue how much fabric you had...just know that insurance companies never "overpay"...I would figure $10 a yard, and go from there.

It is apparent that your insurance agent does not sew or quilt. Itemized list of fabrics? Get real...

My insurance agent was floored when I handed him the appraisal. He had no idea what a quilt was worth.

Has your agent told you about owner's negligence ? Better ask what that entails pertaining to your policy. I was so mad at our agent for not telling us about it I changed insurance companies. It would have taken him two minutes to point it out on our policy and it took me all day to read the policy and find out what it meant. The new agent told us up front about it before we asked.

For an experiment, I was wondering now much fabric I could get in a 12 x 16 x 12 inch box.

Approximately 109 yards of " regular" quilting cotton fabric - which weighed approximately 30.5 pounds.

I have NO idea but I'm sure it would be probably $10,000 at least.
