"If I lived closer to you, I would help you de-stash down to your comfort level. "

Me too! I'd be willing to make a trip to Ohio to help you de-stash!! And my sister is in Columbus, she'll help...

most of my friends/fellow quilters around here do not even step into their sewing rooms in the summer time- they are busy camping/gardening/beaching/traveling/
sewing/quilting is not part of their summer time activities...once school is back in session & the weather begins to change - the gardens are finished & the canning/freezing is done they will again start shopping/sewing/quilting
