Is this you? I know I fall in that category. Give me your thoughts. :lol: :oops: :roll:
I'm 66, do have a computer/quilt/crafting room but definitely fall short in the $ amount of supplies and inventory. My stash got pretty low after the move 5 years ago and then it was hard hit with quilting but I'm gradually building it back up. With the cost of fabrics these days, the inventory of supplies is definitely higher money wise than it's ever been but no where near that high as I try to buy fabrics that I'll be using within a couple of years so I don't stock pile a lot. I really don't have enough space either.
