Oh Girls ! I hear you ! But it does give me comfort to know I have fabrics ready to go and will mix in with everything. I also have collections of fabrics, like dots, plaids, stripes, novelties, blue, Halloween, leaves and more. I just wish I was more organized. Ever since I lost my parents everything has been a mess. I forgot my fat quarters !

I just used some fabric that I bought when I was pregnant with my oldest daughter (whose 35th birthday was yesterday). Still good. I moved it from house to house all my married life. Unbelievable.

I have three - five shelf book cases with fabric sorted by color or holiday. I am trying to use it up, but cannot resist buying more. Actually, I have not been to a quilt shop since November 17th. My closest one is an hour drive from home. Since it is a drive to my LQS, I tend to stock up so I am never short. I figure I am helping the economy and am planning for the future for when I retire. I do like being able to look at my shelves and pull fabric as if I am in my own private quilt shop. I usually buy not knowing what I am going to make with it. When I show my DH a completed project he always asks where I got the fabric and I always tell him "I had it". That is kind of a standard joke between us. I say, if you can, keep buying. the fabrics are so beautiful and hard to resist. Happy quilting!

I love going through my stash looking for whatever I will make next Diane C.

Since the price of fabric is going up even more, aren't we glad to have our stashes? I am - it MIGHT curtail the spending. In the area in which I live, we still can buy good fabric for 3.99 a yard.

It makes me sad when I use the last of a favorite piece,I do hand needleturn applique mostly and I have used the last piece of a favorite green batik and cant find it again . It was some I had bought years ago.

YES! My DD moved out 1 1/2 yr ago. Bad/good for me just another room to store fabric. Already took over DS room 8 yrs ago. I want to collect all types of fabric. I've been resisting 30's and civil war. Love them both, but must use what I have. Lately, falling in love with Moda precuts. Can't resist a good Connecting Threads clearance sale. I was once very organized, but lately no go. I have tubs by color, but everything in DD room is not sorted yet. Oh, and did I mention thrift store shirts. I just bought 17 more shirts yesterday. 2 lrg underbed storage units for shirts chuck full already. Cutting them keeps my hands busy at night. Shirts are stored in our bedroom. DH is going to evict me.
