My stash is so small that I can go through it all in about 15 minutes. I have a box of fabric that I make bags with and I'm continually searching to see if I have one more combination to use. I would love to have DH ask that question but he won't because he can see what I'm working with. Congrats to all of you with that much fabric. I should have shopped when I was working and saved for a rainy day!

I would have to ask him to look at his work shop and tell me if he needed any new tools or material for his projects. That usually shuts him up

We just moved so I finally have a sewing room, it hasn't been straightened and sorted yet but dh's pretty good when he sees it. Never complains when I ask for something even though it would be coming out of the house budget. I was laughing about the price of a sewing table the other day and he said if you really want something like that - get it. I don't. I'd rather buy stuff at yardsales, I appreciate finding them more than I would just buying it in a store, I got a wonderful French Country style kitchen table for 20.00 that I'm planning on using for my sewing table and I love the look of it. And a ton of people have shared their scraps with me so I have plenty of scraps to play with and didn't hurt the budget at all except for postage.

I swear my stash grows overnight! AM making some Christmas presents and am determined to use up some of the stash. So when DH asks how much the fabric cost for the tablerunners, I said it was free since I already had the material and didn't have to go shopping!

Good answer. He probably won't wander in there again. LOL

Oh little does he know .....(followed by evil laugher)

I'm one of the fortunate ones here. My hubby never complains about my fabric/notions and takes me shopping too.
In fact he likes to come into my "room" and see what I'm doing and makes lots of positive comments..
If I'm on the quilt board looking around, he listens to what we are all discussing and just smiles and shakes his head...
He says "whatever makes you happy" ..... Yeah, he is a sweetheart

My husband just bought over $200 dollars worth of tools and misc. stuff at Harbor Freight. I waited till we were driving home and said, " I need to get some brown flannel to finish my brother's Christmas quilt". He didn't say a word. Remember ladies...Timing is everything. hahahahahaha

There is no such thing as toooooooooo much fabric. I have the same problem, yes I have lots of fabric but it doesn't go together. I have been on a strict fabric diet and yesterday the dam broke. I had 2 60% off at Jo-Ann fabric and started my holiday binge. I am anxiously awaiting the Black Friday flyer from Jo-Ann Fabric to do further damage

My dh knows how much fabric I have. I brought him into my sewing room and had him sit at my chair and I took him on a tour of all my fabric. ALL of it! His mouth dropped open when I started opening closets, storage bins, dressers, a storage unit, my bookcase, my old fashioned desk, etc. He didn't say one word...just walked out with his mouth still open. I have soooo much fabric and soooo many quilt kits that if I never bought another piece of fabric, I wouldn't run out. BUT, they always come out with new fabric lines and who can pass those by. But I do need backing.
