I asked her (the DD) want she was going to make. She said she was going to make a night gown for her doll.
Her mother asked her what she was going to make with the other fabric (a floral calico with blue and red flowers). DD said, "I don't know yet, I just like it."

I leaned over to her and said, " That's what we quilters and sewers call our 'stash'.

The DD said, "I know (Big smile) I have a lot of stash already!" she giggled.

I adored her. She was maybe 8 years old if that!

There is hope for the younger ones coming up behind us older folks!
