That's how much I'm guessestimating I've got on my shelf. Probably more. All bought in 2010. :shock:
Makes me wonder how many good-sized lap quilts that would make me if I kept working just from stash... Do you all have this much, lots more, or what?

Originally I thought I didn't have a lot of fabric, so I kind of went on a buying spree... for like a week. Now, I have been organizing it and wrapping it and storing it vertically on a bookshelf now, and I now realize I have A LOT. How many quilts... I have no idea. Sounds like you have more fabric than time!

I may be in that range, but a lot of it is apparel fabric. My resolution to not purchase any fabric except what is needed to finish projects isn't exactly a hardship at this point. Hopefully it will be by 2012. Mentally, it is not fun. I'd like to buy more batiks and large florals - my two new loves. Ah, well, this will help me learn to live on my new retirement income.
How many quilts? A 48" by 60+" lap quilt has to take four yards, so at least 125 quilts. My church asked for 45 by 54, but that looked skimpy to me.
