I, on the other hand have 1000+ yards of fabric, no kidding[/quote]
Ohhhh, I envy you, how wonderful to have so much fabric to choose from!!! You wouldn't even have to use sheets for backing! LOL. Not that I really mind using the sheets, they are sturdy and long lasting if I choose wisely.
I use sheets sometimes when it's to be machine quilted; once did for a handquilter - hard!
My son made me promise to not buy any fabric for 6 mos last October (Torture but I did it) - my many shelves of it I can see but I had to go through my 17 large Rubbermaids - and guess what: Found fabric I'd long forgotten and fabric I'd never seen before in my life (though I bought it at some point).
It was like my own LQS.
