Stash is both a blessing and a curse. It's wonderful to have enough fabric in your stash to complete a project without paying $13-14.00 per yard at the LQS. Still, no matter how much I have accumulated, there is always that elusive 1 yard or so that I end up buying to complete a project. Lifting large plastic, stash-containing totes sure could tone up the upper arms - or give one a hernia!
