Last year my DIL came and got a machine from me and picked out a ton of her favorite fabrics from my stash. Hasn't done a thing with it and I understand.Been busy with babies. Now they are buying their first house and she has room for a sewing room. She is so excited! Glad I could help and it didnt cost her a thing to get started. Stashes can be good. A lot of people can benefit for sure from someone else's stash.
