You made me chuckle Tippysmom. You WANT STASH! Don't expect to get stash overnight. It is a gradual process. At first you don't have STASH but don't despair you will eventually have STASH. My STASH is a 35 year accumulation from my mother, my aunts, prior sewing and quilting projects, and thrift stores. Don't discard anything except the smallest scraps and that may be difficult (don't ask me how I know). STASH will appear. You will know when you have STASH when your significant other asks you "what are you going to do with all that fabric" or "more fabric?, don't you have enough already".
