Most of my stash are smaller amounts of fabric, from scraps to fat quarters, maybe some half yards. I have a bunch that were giveaways from friends, but few large pieces. I offered to help our church children's group to make pillowcases for Ronald McD house at nearby hospital, and am finding I don't have much on hand that is appropriate. So we'll have to buy for that. When I have a project, like the queen quilt I'm working on now, I had to buy larger amounts for the background, though am using a pack of half yards from last year's VT shop hop, and some other pieces I had on hand. Big cost is going to be the backing. I wish my stash had better storage, as I don't have a dedicated room, just a big closet and the kids' old dressers that I filled with bits when they left home.
