Definitely go out and at least buy a lottery ticket!! What luck!
Congrats on a fantastic stash!

STAR, This is a wonderful gift that you have received. It happened to me about 4 years ago. My friend and I went to a garage sale and the daughter was selling some of her Mom's material. Her Mom had congestive heart failure and couldn't quilt anymore. We left our names and phone number with the daughter and the daughter called us a month later that she had
planned to give us Everything that her Mom had for fabrics and books, etc. Her Mom had a beautiful kit for hand applique that
she hadn't started.
We felt guilty for the gift but told the daughter we belonged to a
quilt guild and do charity quilts for needy people. We were able to use alot of the material for that purpose.
The daughter didn't care what we did with the material. She knew she didn't want any of it. Eiltcoq.
