one must also remember that every person who is on QB or who has a stash of fabric is not JUST a quilter! I do love to quilt, I love to design them, I love to learn the history of them, BUT I also teach others to sew, mainly clothing or home decor items! I also teach dying, painting, inking, etc on fabric and have TEST things going on all the time! I also sew Medieval garb and my own clothing and home decor...so what you see is what you would see in ANY seamstresses 10' sq room!
Buttons, trims, notions, art supplies,, all have their places and for the most part they are in them....it is the fabric that is like herding cats at the fish market...has a mind of its own I think!
