once you know your voice as a quilter you will know what type of stash you need.
like a previous person said different styles have different stash needs.
for example i never work with novelty prints so it would be pointless for me to buy this types of fabric even when deeply discounted because i would never use it.
Am still speechless. Just when I think I hear a faint voice, I look at the quilts on this board and the voice disappears. Not giving up though.
I don't work with novelty prints except with baby quilts or kid quilts. Then I buy just enough for the quilt because I know I won't use the leftovers. I'm still trying to find my voice as a quilter and I've been at it for 10 years. I do know that I am more of a traditional quilter.
