Yardage??
I saw a post from Pattypurple a few days ago. I believe she was in a new sewing area??
Anyway she made the statement that she had to move 500 yds of her fabric. Does everyone know how much yardage they have??? Boy, I have NO idea????? lol lol I still have a lg bag full that I bought @ a closing and haven't even put it away!! I have a quilt on my table and no room to organize the new material...
Really do you all honestly know????????????? Should I be doing this??????

Not happening at my house Just returned from a 4 week holiday and added another huge pile of fabrics I had purchased as I collected Row by Row patterns! I enjoy spending time in quilt shops and as long as I can I will support them so that they don't disappear That's the excuse I'm giving....

The box was 12x16x12 inches -
I got 115 yards of fabric in it.
The fabric weighed 32 pounds, 8 ounces.
(The empty box weighed 14.5 ounces.)
On this particular batch of fabric - Fabric Traditions - it was 3.5 yards of fabric per pound. (A yard of this fabric weighed approximately 4.5 ounces.)

About a year ago I carefully folded fabric to fit into a "small" Home Depot moving box.
