There is a line between having enough and having too much, I just don't know where it is.

I decided at the first of the year I would only buy fabric to get my UFOs done. Like that was going to happen. I didn't even make it 2 weeks. Buy Gals it makes you feel good.

I joined the fabric moritorium, too, though I do get to buy small amounts I need to work with fabrics I have. I am not buying anything for my stash.

Overwhelming - I have to sew in the family room because I have two rooms so full of fabric that there is no room for a sewing machine.

I was beginning to think there was something wrong with me since my very moderate stash was overwhelming me. I've decided I don't like having fabric sitting around that has no purpose. I've been agonizing over how to use up what little I've collected.

I know that's all very un-quilter like but I just do best when things are organized. Organization to me is buying fabric for a specific purpose, using it and finishing that project before starting another. It's just what I've found works best for me. :)

Yes,I have got to get a grip, I am overwhelmed and that leads me to me non-productive. Thank goodness I have this board to pass the time :oops: :oops:

You can never be too rich, too good looking, have too much chocolate, or have too much fabric!
