that when I am pulling fabrics from my stash for a project, I find bunches that I won't ever use. But when I go to pull some of those out to sell them, I don't want to part with any of them?!?

Because there is always that "Just in case" :-)

I don't have an anwser for that one. But if it helps, I am the exact same way! I feel so greedy when it comes to letting go of my fabric. Almost as bad a Scrooge with his money. LOL!!

I don't know, but I have the same problem. :lol:

Maybe you're looking at them with different eyes? Plus different context?

I do the same thing.......you never know when you will need that "cast off" fabric :!: :lol: :lol: :lol:

Me, too! Tried the keep 1 give away 3; that quickly became keep 3 give away 1. We are just terrible people (when it comes to fabric) and that is all there is to it!!

I have only been quilting for 6 months & I am terrible. I am normally a generous person but not with my fabrics. I have a nice collection but I don't want to share...

Ok, so I'm glad it's not just me!! I'm making myself get rid of some, though. I know someone here will give them good homes!

Believe me I understand more than I can put into words!!!! After all this fabric folding, I'm actually wondering what I'm doing. :shock:
