I know I won't use all of it, but I know for a fact that there is enough fabric to not only make a ton of quilts, but backing fabric also. In total so far there are 24 banana boxes stuffed full and a duffle bag and an over sized tote bag. Heres a picture of the boxes. Im leaving them on my patio as I want to wash every single bit of the stuff. This is only 12 of them as the other 12 are in the washers up in the laundry room. I am going to be washing fabric for a year!! lol
    Happy for you. Wish I could find a deal like that. Except, WHERE to put it all?

    Isn't it wonderful to sew from someone else's stash. I get bored with mine sometimes....always the same colors. it must be so exciting opening up the boxes to see what's inside. Happy quilting.

    Fantastic! I cannot imagine that much material for starters and then the price is outstanding!! What a wonderful lady to sell for such a price! I can't wait to see what is unearthed and shown here on the board! Whew...
