I understand how a person can get attached to fabric. I love going to thrift stores and browse through what they have. Some are very beautiful. Let's say you have blue fabric and and a variety of blue prints, are they separated or put together, etc.

I also keep my "themed" fabrics together by themes - like butterflies, ladybugs, dogs, cats, food - but then I have shelves that I have possible quilt combinations stacked - so in other words.. I do what works for me but I'm still always hiding fabric from myself. While cleaning last night I found a whole stack I forgot I had. I have too much fabric for the space - I need to do some power destashing but I have a hard time letting go of fabric, I'm attached to it. I know.. crazy...
