I commend you for not being a stasher. Lots of times I find the piece in my stash isn't big enough for the project I chose to use it on. Being practical is a good thing, so never doubt yourself for that. My closet is overrun with fabric waiting to be used for something; and sometimes it is inconvenient to not have room for other stuff. Of course I live in a 70's ranch style home that doesn't have alot of extra storage to begin with. Again, I commend you!
