Send your fabric home by USPS priority box. The $14.?? box can hold a lot of fabric.you can cram as much as you can in it aslong as you can get the box taped shut and the sides do not split. Do not ask me how I know this! Saves room in your car/suitcase or having to buy another suitcase. Very nice selection of fabric!!!!!

Beautiful stash!! If you find yourself in that predicament again (wondering if too much for luggage limits on flights or just taking too much space in your luggage), go to a post office or local UPS store & ship it home by mail! My DH & I used to take long trips on our motorcycle which has very small storage areas. If we wanted to pick up something special, we'd do this and it would get home within a day or two of our arrival. Hotels will do this for you although I'd pack it myself for security reasons, then just ask them to ship it. They'll add the shipping to your bill & you won't have to hunt for a place to mail it.
You picked out some gorgeous fabrics. I love the colors you picked out. I hope you have a great time at your next quilt show.
