I don't live in town either. Until recently there was no place to buy fabric up here on the mountain. So I buy mostly for projects, but, I do put in blenders and backings in a stash for those days when it is snowing and I can't get into town.
Now there is the occasional exception when I have bought fabric that I loved and had no current use for. I love having inspirational fabric to start those creative engines. Believe me, between my charity quilts and the other things I sew, it all gets used eventually. The going out of business sales is what grew my stash to almost out of control once. Quilt shop quality at a dime store price, who could resist?
Hubby made my shelving in the double closet of the sewing room to organize mine. Then he added hanging kitchen-type cabinets above my sewing area.
Let me add one thing ... I don't have a closet full of shoes and purses, I don't have any hobbies but this one and gardening. So I feel no remorse whatsoever.
