    Sometimes I think my stash is like Audrey II, in the Little Shop of Horrors - "Feed me, Feed me"

    Wouldn't you just like to answer "I am not making anything....I just like spending money" and smile.....

    Added to mine yesterday as Hancock was having a wonderful sale plus senior day so another 15% off, how can you pass that up? Got a few gifts for our guild exchange next month and picked up some things for the SP exchange here.

    I always get asked what I'm making and when I answer "a quilt", the next question they ask is "what's the pattern?". Do they really think of gotten that far in planning!! LOL

    My response is typically "its going in the Museum" ... but I am going to have to borrow "If I don't feed my stash, it will die."

    It's Wonder Fabric. I wonder what I am going to use it for. It's still cheaper than therapy

    So funny!! It's Joann's policy that they HAVE to ask. It's a way of showing interest in the customer according to their policies. If you shop Joann's you've probably noticed how stiff it sounds when some of the employees ask because 1 - they have no sewing experience or 2 - they really just could care less! LOL
