Default All of a Sudden I Have a Stash And Multiple Projects!!

How did this happen?? I went on a quilt shop hop and bought fabric...just because. I have fabric to make quilts for my two sisters and a cousin. I have a new embroidery machine and I'm learning that and have projects planned for that. I'm taking 4-5 Craftsy classes and have fabric for those! Suddenly I have these piles of fabric and I don't even know why I bought them!! I want to make a wall hanging for my Mother's room and a little bag to carry her prayer books on the inside of her wheel chair.

Simplicity on sale at Joann's starting May 24th! I saw a carry all for a wheelchair when I was looking for a pattern for the back of the car seats to hold the kid's "garbage".

I remember years ago wondering how anyone could make a certain antique quilt I saw. It must have had 30 or 40 different brown prints in it. Buying that many different fabrics would be a big outlay of cash at that time for me. Now..... I not only can imagine it.... I'm sure I have that many browns, and reds, and blues, and greens, and .... well, you get the picture. Stash happens when you least expect it. But, it sure is fun!!

LOL, officially addicted quilter! We all seem to acquire multiple "projects" some that we have fabric for that we don't even know what they are yet! I'm sure you've seen the saying "one who dies with the most fabric wins"......I'm sure that came about honestly!

Just imagine all the yummy scraps you'll have to start English paper piecing or yoyo quilt making. . Have fun. Enjoy the journey.
