I have three - five shelf book cases with fabric sorted by color or holiday. I am trying to use it up, but cannot resist buying more. Actually, I have not been to a quilt shop since November 17th. My closest one is an hour drive from home. Since it is a drive to my LQS, I tend to stock up so I am never short. I figure I am helping the economy and am planning for the future for when I retire. I do like being able to look at my shelves and pull fabric as if I am in my own private quilt shop. I usually buy not knowing what I am going to make with it. When I show my DH a completed project he always asks where I got the fabric and I always tell him "I had it". That is kind of a standard joke between us. I say, if you can, keep buying. the fabrics are so beautiful and hard to resist. Happy quilting!
