I thought I had a great stash until I realized it was mainly focus fabrics, and nowhere near enough blenders. That comes from only buying fabric that I absolutely love, and feeling justified in buying it because I absolutely love it. So when I went through my stash a while ago, I made a list of the colors of blenders I would need, and started shopping those. I would literally write down: light teal print/dots to go with Parrot fabric ---- something like that. Then when I shopped those sales on line, I had a specific list to work from. If I wasn't sure the fabric would work, I could always just pull out the "Parrot fabric" and make a judgement. That helped to eliminate a lot, and give me confidence about the ones I did buy. I'm still working on it, but I've increased my stash of blender fabrics considerably. I now realize the blenders are just as important as the focus fabrics -- the ones that stop me in my tracks -- because without the blenders on hand, I'm at the quilt shop at the last minute paying full price for fabrics I could have gotten for $4.00 a yard on those specials I like to hunt down.
