This thread reminds me of something that happened when we built our dream (retirement) home a few years ago. The hubby's brothers helped us get it done. We only had to move the stash from the 2nd floor of the old shack we were living in to the lower level of the new place. The guys were trying to figure an easy way to to that when one suggested a conveyor belt contraption from an upper window to the window of my new sewing studio, another suggested we just leave it in the old place and torch it along with the house. Thankfully, my husband said, "heck no, that won't work at all---we torch her stash, she'll just go out and buy more fabric to replace it!" I think it's one smart man I married! LOL
