Well Carolyn you certainly do have a large roll there, do you have a spare corner (if like me..no) or aspare bed one of these might do untill it,s a wee bit smaller...good luck and happy sewing. marian

This time of year, sprinkle glitter on it and hang ornnaments, packages beneath, put a 4 color light wheel in the corner and you're all decorated for Christmas.

Got an attic? Take off a some to work with, and store it there until you need another large piece. I can walk in my attic, so you know I got 'stuff' up there-LOL...If I lived close, now that's another thing.......LOL

Its 7 feet tall !!lol i got it in the corner but i guess i will put it on the spare single bed and cover it up lol
by rescuer 10 Nov 2013
LOL You could make a spare single bed out of it! That is quite a lot. It is true that you work so fast ...it will be gone in no time at all.

I love it! Knowing how quickly you work, I think you will be reducing it in size week by week. Congrats on the deal. We all wish we could have such great deals.

If you have to store it, put some anti-bug/moth stuff with it, or you may have the odd nest of unwanted visitors. Or maybe it gets too cold in Canada for them?

Like all the ideas and you could cut to size of a mattress and put between the mattress and box-springs and knowing that you live in the extreme cold zone you could use it for insulation. lol That's a lot.

Wowwie this is load of quilts. guess your new cutter will get the works this winter. I am giggling over the size of this and thinking of all the things you can get tied down with that much Velcro. Last year you scarfed up the winter with your scarfs and looks like this one will be quilted. Wow,wow,wow!

You could tie ribbon real tight around and make it into a snowman.
That's a lot of fluff! Great deal!

You may need some more fabric to handle that batting. You do need thick quilts up there to stay warm! It'll be gone and you will think, well that wasn't too much! Happy Stitchin!

I had images of the Postman trying to deliver this parcel to your home! I imagined it would have taken up most of the space in his van! Seven feet tall - that is enormous Carolyn. I like the idea of storing it in an attic, if you have one, or under a bed! Love Chris

P.S. Knowing you I am sure this will get used up very quickly.

Just how many chairs does your cousin repair a year? Looks like this roll of batting will cover all her needs for a few years to come.At least you can use some of the Velcro to hold it together and keep it neat and rolled up tidy. Just hope there is enough room under her bed to store it But what a wonderful useful got you have .for her
Hugs annnie

got this the wrong way around.. i thought YOU had purchased it FOR your cousin,
OH my I can see a chenille vest padded with some of the batting to keep you warm with a matching pull on hat and a pair of mitts.
by noah 10 Nov 2013
maybe no he bought it and i paid for it lol
