I don't have a large stash. it all fits into a corner of my china hutch probably have less than one of the grocery bags that you take with you. If I see something that screams at me that it needs to be in a quilt for a certain person I then collect it for their quilt. I am a new quilter and this probably is how a hording "stash" starts but I will only have four quilts in the planning stage at one time. It is not offal to want to destash, it is only offal if you just toss in the trash. I would weed out your stash those pieces that you are not totally in love with and sell them on here to those who could use a good deal. but that is just me.
