My stash is extremely important to me. Sometimes I just like to go through a bin, pull the fabric out, make my choices and put it back. When we downsized from a 3-bedroom house to a 2 bedroom apt. my DH wanted me to get rid of 90% of my stash. I stood firm, and I gave away almost half of my stash to a dear quilting friend who would pass on to another friend who makes charity quilts for hospitals, so I know it will go to a good home. As for the rest, I brought it with me and just finished my family reunion quilt from my stash, plus fabric they send. I also just finished 2 baby quilts tops from my stash. It makes me feel good that I can "shop" in my apt. and come up with a quilt. It's about time for a trip to the fabric store, just to look, and fill in the gaps of my stash.
