Yes, I was shocked at the shootings. So sad.

It's happening too much in this area. I saw where Parma got flooded again. There it is everytime it rains. Did you see the Civil War Reenactment at the Hale Farm? It was there all weekend. Looked like fun.

We have attended the event but not this year. There is so much to do there. We like their pancake breakfast during the spring Maple Syrup festival.
|
The 2 quilt shops that I usually buy from keep a record of their customers' purchases. Have you checked with them?
|
No I haven't. Didn't even think of that.

I would fill a like container with fabric, measure it to determine the yardage and multiply by $8 (average price for a yard of cotton fabric). Then multiply by the number of containers you had and up it by 10 to 15 percent, just in case you missed something. That should satisfy the insurance company. So sorry this happened to you. It must be heart wrenching to lose your stash and so much stash. That is a lot of fabric!

I am sorry you had to suffer this terrible flood.

I have 20 - 30 yards in a tote. I would guestimate at 200 yards at $12 a yard plus tax and then add some for good measure, I would say around $3000. When I talked to my insurance company when I got my new machine, I explained that I had between $3000 & $5000 in fabric alone and she said that would not be a problem that I did not have to itemize that amount of fabric because I have really good coverage.

Okay, I have a number for you. I recently received 40 yards of fabric in a large Express mail box, which measures 12x12x5.5". That box was full, and the ebay seller claims she can pack up to 40 (no more) yards in a box.
I converted those inches (12x12x5.5=792) and found that it is equivalent to 11.7856 dry quarts. Your 58-quart container is 4.9212 times as large as the postal box, so if you filled it absolutely full you would get about 196.85 yards in it (4.9212 * 40). So... 8 containers *196.85 yards/container = 1574.8 yards! At $12/yard = $18,897.60. Sounds like a nice shopping trip, yes? |
I am so sorry to hear about your flooding.
wish you the best of luck!!!!!!! |
