Carolaug, so happy to read your post. Glad your back to quilting and inspired.
I have been reading the threads on here related to stash size, prices of fabric, and how some stocked up their stash in preparation for retirement and a fixed income budget. I reorganized my fabric this weekend, and found just what others have mentioned, the same fabric in two separate purchases...... but not many blenders or solids. I never realized this until my reorganization. I am heading to my mid 50's, and I like the idea of bulking up my stash for retirement, if l start now, a little at a time, I feel I should be able to sew for many years to come. Also, fabric prices in my opinion will only continue to rise. So gotta plan now for many years of sewing.🤓
