    Just looking through some older posts and wondered, did you order poundage from Fat Quarter Shop? What kinds of fabrics, quality and sizes did you get with the package. I have considered purchasing this way but was always weary of what I was really going to get. Was it worth it? Would you do it again?

    looks great! I just sent a box weighing 17 lbs. to a friend but it included notions. I didn't figure out how many yards of fabric were in it, but I had a larger box and I couldn't carry it, so I had to do 2. At least now I know I sent a box worth receiving.

    So- overall- was all the quality real good? Would you recommend to someone purchasing the same way?

    Thanks!

    Pam I won an auction for Moda Strawberry Lemonade fabric on Ebay. I was to pay shipping for 12 lbs but the box weighed in at 15 lbs and I got a shopping bag from private Seller full to the top. It was still in the original quilt shop bag they purchased the material from. I got yardage, 35 FQ's, 4 jelly rolls, and at least 10 charms packs. I paid $19.90 plus 10.00 s+h - $29.90 total! That was my deal of the decade! Harvest home is beautiful and so are your quilts! I'm sure you will make something magnificent out of it!
