i'm with you!!!! making from my stash in both quilting, knitting and crochet..... listening to the new and thinking about all that's going on right now, just makes me realize i need to do something with all i have!!! We are coming to a time when you can vacation a bit.... (in 43yrs. only 2 with hubby)... don't dye my hair... i'm just a low maintenane girl... so i say.... let's get in those rooms and start making things....(that's mostly a cheer for me.... i can barely move in mine,, so many things in progress, it's a wonderful space,,, i just need to go in, shut the door and create!!!! Enjoy your stuff girls... it too me years to figure out that my hobby was becoming "shopping" not creating... (

I am a reformed fabriholic and since I am not going to give up quilting, I need to make sure my purchases are necessary. So the amount you spend doesn't really mean anything if you are using it up too.
