Lucky you. When I clicked on your picture, it turned it the right direction. It could be the space here to upload your pic was just too small.

The lady that gave it to me is in my SS class.The fabric was actually her mothers.Her mom wasn't able to quilt anymore, and she thought of me.Her mom knew me and was happy to let it go. This is about 4 or 5 big boxes.....she told me she has more for me...about 7 more boxes !

My husband is wondering where I will put it all....secretly, so am I. LOL

You have quite a generous friend! That is a wonderful selection of fabric!
Your picture will go right-side-up (in a new tab) if you click on it. Did you get a Mac?

on my pc, it is still side ways,

I use Google Chrome to access this site. I wonder if that is how they are turned right-side-up.
I know that Apple/Mac products add a bit of code (not recognized by all websites) to pictures, this is usually resolved (for me) in the new tab.
Is the picture sideways -- even the original?

Oh, I never thought.My IPhone is Apple.
by rescuer 23 Jun 2013
See if taking a picture with the "Home" button to the right -- fixes the issue. I know that the orientation of the phone makes a difference.

Yes, I tried to arrange stacks by color, when I washed it.I have lots of blues,reds,and greens.there are stacks behind but I couldn't put them all in single file ,as they wanted to tip over-T

Well Toogie it doesnot matter how the picture is we can all see you have got a super huge big pile of fabric and I read more is to come. I can see you are going to be mega busy sewing this lot so it will be an age before we see you again?

Some of is in pieces, just small enough for appliques, and then there have been pieces with 5 yards! You know this will make Avery a lot of bibs,LOL

I forgot to add. We used a lot for the prayer quilts and this was the leftovers !

I don't quilt, but I guess this would be a quilters dream. I shop the remnant bins for my small applique projects and in the hoop projects. Joann's expensive decorator fabrics are cheaper that way too. I suppose that I would store them by color, the quilters may give you other hints. You are one lucky lady!

Oh my! What a blessing this is! Now, do you have enough hiding places to stash all this? I guess your hubby must know about it all, so you don't have to hide any. LOL I can imagine all the bibs, burp cloths, quilts, clothes you'll be making. So happy for you and on top of that you're having a little one soon. Blessings to you!
