You would most certainly win ... the person who dies with the most fabric, wins! I wish I lived close so I could "shop" in your stash. I definitely like the idea of contacting a guild in your area. Most of them do charity quilts and the upside is you would have strangers, but nice strangers in your home. I have also been to some shows that have a "sale" room and the members are allowed to batch and sell fabric, etc. at the quilt show. My stash might fill several of your shelves, if I "fluffed" it up. I tend not to buy a lot of fabric, buy only for the project at hand and I use any leftover fabric from the project to put on the back so I have fewer leftovers. That being said, I LOVE doing scrap quilts and am always on the hunt. Some of my best finds have been at garage sales and most quilters know the value of fabric and are pretty agreeable with the prices posted as long as they aren't outrageous.
