Awesome stash and story!

No kidding! I thought all my boxes on shelves on the wall and the yardage in the closet was too much so I have been buying less and using what I have and I'm no where even close to hers!

No one in my family sews either but my family does understand there is a lot of value in what I have so not to just donate it - they may not get a lot, but there is value. If they find someone that needs it though, they would more than likely give it to them.

wow, a great story.

My family had been told which charity should have first pick of my stash, but then we sold our house and got ready to move. I had the head of the charity come glean my moving sale (about 20% of my sewing and craft stash).
Now that we are in another state, I'll have to choose another recipient. I hope I outlive my sister -- she's a hoarder who doesn't even take some of her purchases out of the bag.

Lord help you. I have about that much. Lord help my husband and daughter. Find a Quilt guild in your area. They make lots of quilts for Vets and Children

After looking at all that fabric, I'm speechless.

Thank you for sharing this.

That is some stash. It's a great story and appropriate to Kansas, since the Kansas City Star publishers were there. I have heard of a stash that was several bedrooms and several storage lockers big.

Sure makes me feel a whole lot better about my stash.
