    No problem. Getting all the projects done would be the problem.

    Wow - $15,000 ... that's a lot of fabric. Just think, you could buy all the batiks and blendables - not to mention a ton of other things - and you could buy the whole bolt!! I'll take that challenge. Plus there are home economic departments at many schools that you could donate lots of fab fabrics to.

    Only fabric, or sewing stuff? I would get another sewing machine, Books. rulers then fabrics.

    Stunnn-nnning.
    The first thing everyone who saw it said was, "OhMiGosh!"

    Our quilt club almost started it once, but got sidetracked on other things and I never made the pattern.
    Our instructor started it in blues, but got to about table centerpiece size and stopped, made a pincushion out of the one extra block she had!
    One of my DFs finally did make the Omigosh finally, and it is out of this world to see.

    It's the kind of quilt I really admire, would like to think I had made it someday!
