To start, because my mom bought the fabric and I was sewing, Shawna had all the free clothes she could think of! Here are the fabrics she picked out:

I got a few things for Danielle at that time, and picked up a bunch of flannel for a great price on a subsequent trip. Danielle's fabrics:

I picked up some stuff for myself:

THEN, when I was at my mom's during our return trip layover, she mentioned that she had a bunch of clothes that didn't fit her. Here is what she gave me to wear:
And here are clothes that will be used for their material (this was a GREAT source of knits, especially because they're thicker than what you can find in the fabric store, and making things for babies/toddlers doesn't take much fabric anyways):
Shawna and Matt gave us a bunch of clothes the twins have outgrown, because they're awesome:
And, finally, here's what it all looks like together:
Ridiculous, isn't it?!?
Side note: Just wanted to add that in the past 2.5 months or so I have made 6 pairs of pjs, two pairs of shorts, a dress and a jumper for Danielle, 2 pairs of pants for my mom, 2 shirts and busy books for the twins, a dress for myself, a skirt for myself and caught up on two years worth of mending. So the fabric will get used, even if my mom does think I sew slow... :)
