    That was a great find. Since I'm in charge of the charity quilts for our guild I know how hard it is to find backing fabric that doesn't have to be pieced. The larger pieces are such a time saver. It is so good of you to make all those quilts for others.

    I'll use it all, never fear. A couple years ago we all did over 80 quilts. I figure this will do about 50 twin sized or larger quilts. I was thrilled to find it--so happy, but have to resist going back to look some more. I figure I should use it up (or at least most of it) before I go back. I may leave my phone number and tell them if they get more in, to give me a call. Most of their clothing and items come from western Europe--mostly the U.K. I think.

    A gift from God for all your charity work!! Wonders never cease! Now that you've just saved a bundle of money, I'm sure you'll enjoy even more, making your charity quilts. Thanks for your generosity and for sharing.

    What a wonderful find, for a wonderful cause. Nothing say's homey and cuddle more than a good plaid.
