    Oh my gosh! I am glad to now know that I am not alone!

    I had 4 yards of a solid peach colored fabric for 20 yrs that I finally made myself start using last year and you know it was even prettier in the disappearing 9-patch lap quilts than by itself. I was glad I finally started using it.

    I now have some Jason Yenter fabric that I just love looking at.

    Personally I normally can't wait to use any fabric I have because it means I can go buy more. But my sister on the other hand has this issue and I laugh at her all the time. I always just thought it was her

    I have problems with this too, I have a large collection of Robyn Pandolph fabrics that I am hoarding for the perfect project... Realistically I have enough for 6-8 perfect projects but can't bring myself to cut it up.

    Yes me to! I have some special sets of fabric that i am afraid to use. I also am not sure what to make with them and just look at them.

    When i do use some of my favorite fabrics, my friend will ask, 'who is that for?" I say, "ME!"

    I am going to make a denim cathedral window quilt and call it 'A Few of My Favorite Things" using the 'window' to showcase some of my favorite fabrics.

    I thought I was the only one. I just love to look and feel how my fabrics feel. Moda is one of my favorites and feels like silk to me...getting to be the same price too!!! I am slowly making head way though...
