a medium flat rate box is currently 14.35, large, 19.95 according to the USPS website. Smashed in, you can get about 25 yards of fabric into a large flat rate box.
I haven't read the blog, but I know from the Quilt Show show,

she has poured a ton of money and time into making her town a quilt town, and totally fun to visit.

Must say how sorry I am that some were offended by my comment concerning the auction to be held by Mary Fons....it was not my intention to offend. I do not read Mary's blog so had no idea about her health issues. Perhaps if it had been mentioned that the proceeds were to go to a charity I would not have reacted as I did. Please forgive.

This was on her fb page and is the reason she is doing this:
"I am selling off a large portion of my personal fabric stash … because I moving to a pet-friendly apartment! Yes! It’s the best thing ever! The only downside is that the space I’m moving to is way smaller than where I’m at now. Stuff’s about to get real, y’all."

These posts really confused me about who they were talking about. After a bit of investigation, I figured out it was Mary Fons, Marianne Fons daughter. The link to eBay is here:

There will be another eBay post on April 1st as evidently you can only post a certain amount of items per month.
