I`ve also been `hoarding` fabric for years and mostly recently (since our `baby` was put to sleep this past summer after 13.5 years) I`ve started buying fabric like I`m on `roids. I`m also teaching myself to quilt,, so in the meantime I`ve pulled out all the picture frames that I`ve collected at yard sales and framed swatches of my fabrics! Friends and family think the artwork looks great,, but yes they love me and would have saidd it looks good even if it doesn`t. i joined this message board a couple of days ago and you all are a great group of folks!!
