For years l envied those with a large stash. We had a tight budget and fabric for something other than sewing clothes for kids and myself seemed frivolous. I even made a sporty faux suede jacket for hubby. These days, l'm always happy to accept anyone else's offerings of scraps and orphan pieces, even though we can now afford the luxury of " hobby supplies". I love my stash. It's mainly pieces less than a yard, as l've become a scrappy quilter over the years. Our daughter knows the quilting groups l belong to, so the fabric will go to good causes. I make sure l don't bring in more fabric until l've made and given a few quilts. Then l find l'm out of background or blenders...never a problem with my supply of novelty fabric and prints... those always seem to drift my way when people are destashing 😆
