I have a stash room, as in a room full of fabric, and I have learned that having all that fabric, and only being able to make 2-3 quilts a year is just silly. I have been thinning it out, just to see that it all ends up in quilts instead of a second hand store. Neither of my DDs is into sewing, so there is only one niece who sews and she only wants to make kid clothes so far. I read a thread on here about someone having to clean out a quilter's stash after she had passed, and I just don't want to leave that burden on my DDs. I am also beginning to make pillow cases, so some is being up cycled into those. If you have problems getting new fabric to play with and pet, then a huge stash makes sense, but if you are as slow as me, a smaller stash in colors that make you happy, makes sense.
