If you have an IPhone or an IPod there is a great free app that will find all the quilt shops within miles of any town you type in. Or it will use your location and tell you where all the quilt shops are. It gives you a list of names and adresses and a map to get you there, DH has threatened to remove the app from my IPod. LOL

There's no such thing as too much fabric...just too little room to keep it! LOL!

I started out the opposite, I inherited my MIL stack, (rooms full) and was only going to use it to make quilts, that worked for ONE, front, back, batting and all, but then started to get ideas, have cleaned out much of what I didn't want, didn't like and seemed unsuitable for quilts, but now, due to my diligent shopping, I seem to be right back where I started from. I love to buy fabrics for a project! I need to use up so much stash! And now I also find myself saving scraps! Oh My!

I also have my stash, but am also starting to use leaders and enders (waiting for the quilt to grow

) so will end up with more WIPs.

That's great pinkberry kay. Hey...did you ever decide on that Janome? I was in today for my instruction class on the Horizon and had a blast. Maybe I will get a chance to post later and tell everyone how much fun and informative the class was.

My Stash is the reason I never pay full price for any fabric. On sale, its off to shop I go, and add to the Stash. Now I think, What colors do I need in my Stash. Then when I need a project, I find what I need in my stash. I'm happy to have you on board. If we ever have a fabric shortage, we won't miss a beat. I like being prepared.
