I was a clothing, craft and home deco before I began to quilt. (still am for gifts and my 3 year old niece, sarah. ) So I was used to having yardage ahead for those projects. And of course the left over yardage when I overbuy piles up.
Then my church gave me ten boxes of fabric and a lovely quilt frame when they were cleaning out the storage room. Then I got as much from a dear friend passing away. The lady next door moved here three years ago, and went through her stash and donated to the bulging closet too. :roll:
Now, I live up out of the city and it does snow enough that I don't want to try and drive down that hill during bad weather. So the stash continues to mount. I usually buy with something in mind. But, the nutrals are always needing to be replaced and it drives me crazy when I am doing something and there isn't the right blue (or whatever). That is when I started hoarding.
There it is ... out in the open..... I am a fabricaholic. And my name is sandy.
