I have 3 sisters. 2 like quilts, go to shows, have bought fabric, but not made anything. One of them is more into knitting, crochet, and cross stitch. Another sister makes beautiful bed sized quilts and has a small stash. I have quite a stash, haven't made very much, but love fabric and old machines, esp treadles. G invited me to join her Guild, I'm actually using stash now, and I share! It's nice to have someone to share with- sister or friend. I didn't buy fabric or even sew when married. My ex preferred to buy everything, and felt making anything besides dinner was a waste of time. That's probably why I am so in love with fabric now.
