This is very similar to what I do! In fact our fabric choices are much the same too, with the exception of Dear Jane.

:lol:

Yes!! yes!! and YES !!!

:-P

ok just got done re-organizing my stash- i ran out of totes to keep them in but on the plus side they are all sorted according to color, theme or type of fabric. i told my husband i was not buying any fabric until thanksgiving except for batting! he laughed!i also told my mom and sister about the box tops to get free fabric that was posted and mom looked at me and said i thought you weren't buying anymore - i said this is free it is different!!!!

Hello: Please fill me in on the boxtops and free fabric! I told my DH the same thing and he just shook his head! Guess our guys know us better than we know ourselves...or are we in denial??? Good nite!

I have to laugh at you Michale,
We all have a ton of fabric.
I have about 40 Rubber Maid containers full and I have about 6 of the huge containers full.
I have 2 Viking Embroidery Machines, a Singer Sewing Machine and A Viking Serger. And I have never made a Quilt in ny life.
I would love to learn how.
I have a lot of patterns, But I'm a big chicken, to even start to cut one out.
Have fun with your fabric

Hi Michael - I'm not a hoarder, I am a fabricholic and , and I don't have a stash, I have a fabricology research centre. That said, I have a mountain of fabric, and I love the colour and texture of it all. I have been expecting a world recession every day for the last 10 years, and wanted to make sure I had plenty of fabric in case I could not afford it when the next big depression hit. Thats my story, and I'm sticking to it. I don't collect kits though - I like to pick my own fabrics. And, another thing, if one of my friends is looking for just the right fabric to finish a quilt top, and its not available in the local shop - they come to me and I usually have it, or a close enough facsimile. And by the way, I saw the earlier threads about people passing on and leaving behind lots of fabric they never used. I was tempted to say that if I can't take it with me, I'm not going. But instead I think I will just include my fabric in my will.
