I have never had a stash like most quilters and sewers do, but I had a small stash of fashion fabrics and quilting fabrics. We moved recently and got rid of or sold nearly everything. I kept my machines and some of my fabrics, but sold the rest. I must have sold a thousand dollars worth of fabric and books and magazines for $100! The lady who bought them was ECSTATIC, and I don't blame her one bit! I thought about charging more but this move was so sudden and happening so quick that we were really in a huge time crunch and everything was priced to SELL, lol.
So now I just have a few different fabrics, and to be honest, after realizing how much fabric I just had laying around that I didn't use for years, I don't find it difficult to resist fabric sales. If I don't have a project waiting for it, I don't buy it, simple as that. It may be the most AMAZING fabric EVER, but you know what? I always come across another perfect fabric at some point or another too!
