I recently posted that I'd ordered a scrap bag from fabric.com and several of you requested pictures. It was delivered today and I'm thrilled with what I received. There are eleven pieces total. Eight of them are 1 yard pieces, the other three are 1/2 yard. Of the eleven there are two pieces that I can't use. One is a cowboy print. No grandsons of an age that would appreciate it. The other is a red that's a stretch fabric. The description on the website and the invoice say 100% cotton so I'm going to call fabric.com about that one. I'll let you know what happens.

Surprisingly most of the fabrics match up with things I was collecting in my stash. And there was even a batik. Take a look at the pictures and let me know what you think.

I am so glad you posted. I remember when you posted re: your order. I've never done anything like that before. appears you have a great deal. L)

Wow! Looks like a great haul! I didn't see your original post--hope you got a good deal.

I have ordered the scrap bag from them 2 times and have been very pleased with what I received. It's like a Christmas package:)

$19.95 for a three pound bundle. I got 9-1/2 yards of fabric. That works out to be about $2.10 per yard. Even if I take out the two pieces I can't use that's still only $3.99 per yard. Problem is, now I want to order another one!

Wow, perfect match ups!

:thumbup:

Beautiful fabric !! :-)

I ordered one of these Fabric.com "scrap boxes" too and was tickled pink with the selections. Everything else was good quality, usable fabric. There was a juvenile print included that I wondered what I would ever do with. It came in handy for a child's quilt headed for the Japan relief effort. You just never know!

I'll definitely order this item again!

Very nice !!! use the two you wont use and do a PIF... Someone would love it I'm sure..

That's a great scrap bag!!!!!!!!!!!
Have fun :D:D

Looks like you did really well. I am always tempted by scrap bags...bit like a mystery parcel. I think after seeing this I'll buy the next one I see.

I did a Moda scrap bag once and was happy with that one too. The thing with the Moda bag is they were all from the same line so even though they were just strips I was able to use them all in one project.

Wow nice Fabs , they sent you some really pretty colors, and they totally match your stash Fabrics it looks like.Great haul :D :thumbup:

Woo Hoo!!! Nice buy.

:lol: Yeah, I'd say you got a great deal! And, so, the obsession begins..... :thumbup:

I used to order fabric from a company that made uniforms and had ;eftovers to sell. I think it was a 25 lb box for some money and shipping. I wished I had their ad again because I got a lot of good fabric from them wasn't stretch or junk all cotton. will have to look in my old quilting books.

Looks like you made out really nicely on that one!!!

It's like they knew what you could use! I didn't know Fabric.com had scrap bags. I may be in trouble! Have fun with your new stuff!

Love grab bags, I have never been disappointed. Glad yours turned out well also.

cool - perfect matches

Did you have to pay shipping too?

Fabric.com has wonderful scrap bags. I've ordered from them before and have always been pleased with what I've received. It can be a little addicting, just like everything else in our love for quilting and creating.

If you order $35 or more shipping is FREE. Not difficult to spend $35.

Great fabrics you got! Neat how they go with your various projects! :)

Wow! Nice!

Please tell me what PIF is.
Rita

$19.95 X 2 = $39.90 - that'll work!

Those are great fabrics!!!

Rita, PIF stands for Pay It Forward. This is an item (or items) that you're list as being a freebie, perhaps with the recipient paying for or chipping in on the postage. It serves to help out those quilters who, for whatever reason, are struggling financially.
