A friend gave me her mom's stash. There was actually very little that I could use. She purchased what was available at the time. Fabric blends and thin fabrics. I made a few quilt throws for her then donated the rest to the free table at Guild. Life is too short to use fabric that is just okay. Some love scrap quilts and would adore a stash but for me, I'd rather have something I like not something someone else likes.
