It helped me to know that I am not the only one feeling overwhelmed. But gee, it is so hard to sew from my stash when I have the color I want in my brain, but not in my stash. Thus, the stash expands.
I know somewhere I bought the perfect stashing for my dgd's birthday quilt. Cannot find that perfect fabric, my dh didn't like any of the other fabric in my stash for this sashing, and after 5 minutes of trying to find one he liked, he said, just go out and buy it, it is only 3 yards. I love my dh, he understands my stash is like his tool box.
