    I sat last night and went through a bunch of the boxes. Man I found some really cool fabrics in there. But no browns LOL. I found a lion king panel...just as cute as cute can be, there was Dalmations with Fire Hydrants and Fire trucks. I am going to make my husbands 6 year old nephew a quilt out of that, I found a Princess panel and 2 pillow case panels to match and Im going to make a quilt for his 1 year old neice. Just simple quilts is all though. There was sunflower fabric, there is even a Pillsbury Dough Boy fabric and once I dig it out from under the pile I topped it with I will take a picture of that one.
    There is alot of that fabric that you would make table cloths out of...its like a crochet looking pattern but its really all done on a machine, but there is white, off white, black, a yellowish color and red. My husband at first thought it was curtains. I found 6 fat quarters of doggie fabric, there is also a panel of penguins and some yardage of penguins.

    15 yards of red fabric would be WONDEFUL for Christmas stockings for the troops overseas!
