You find 36" fabric in your stash. Do you remember how long it's been since they made 36" fabric? I have two different stashes and sometimes they meld together. I also make most of my clothes. Before Olivia was born I made her pink and green frog quilt. Yestereday I cut out an outfit for her with some of the left over frog fabric.
I don't store my fabric in the unsed tub, that's where I store the extra TP, cleaning supplies and hand towels. When you need space for fabric you have to be creative.
