    This is what 1lb of 800+ goose down looks like!

    I can't wait to make an underquilt, a topquilt, a hat, some booties, maybe gloves? a vest for my dog, a pillow...

    JK but some of those things will happen.

    Now you've done it. Now that you've shown the before pic, you have to show the after pic of what you make!

    Looks like fun!

    I had trouble enough with 1 ounce packets. I expect you'll be finding loose down a year from now! LOL

    I'm going to avoid doing that at all costs...

    And it was a really great deal, anyone looking for a larger amount of down should check out www.downlinens.com. If you sign up for their email list, you get a 10% off coupon that can be applied to bulk down. Shipping is free, I got this for $107, which is just a bit more than if I had bought only what I needed by the oz.
