You got a great price.

This is exactly what I was thinking. Perfect for Halloween Quilts :D

I was looking in my stash for a piece of backing, and discovered this. Price tag still on it, on sale for a dollar a yard. 11 yards! Lol!!

I would be thrilled to have that fabric! It is awesome for Halloween hangings and runners, for backing and borders or bindings, what a find.

Wow Halloween!

I just looked at the receipt, I got this in 2006! I guess that shows how deep my stash is.

ManiacQuilter2, thank you! That was the absolute bleedingest (is that a word?) batik that I EVER used!

What great fabric for Halloween.

Well Shelby, I do not think it is fair to you for everyone to expect to buy this piece of fabric for the $1 yd you paid for it and no telling when you bought it when all this fabric being offered on Quilt Board is soooo much more expensive and probably been in the stash pile just as long. Think about what you want to do and how much you will sell it for and then tell everyone. In the meantime I am still interested in the whole 11 yards and still would like to know if background is black or navy. I really do not care I just would like to know.

As for selling it, as mentioned by someone else, she doesn't mean the requirements to list it for sale... (that however doesn't stop her from doing a private sale via pm or email)

As for the fabric, I think it is cool

I think many, I for one would pay much more than what she paid. I don't think anyone means any harm, just friendly banter....
