I have a growing stash that I think I will use in retirement. At least, I hope to use it. I also have quite a stash of counted cross stitch materials-mostly patterns and floss. My eyes (or maybe my patience) have gotten to where I just can't make myself do the x-stitching any more. I keep thinking maybe one day I will pick it up again...
I will keep stash building anyway, especially any batiks that I find. I am 40 miles from JoAnns and 80 miles from Hancocks, so when I get to go to one of them, I usually get something for my stash.
By the way, Okie, how far are you from the Red River?
