Same here along with stash.

Call them my "freebies" .

Private Textile Collection

Resource Center (borrowed that name from someone else.)

"Stash" is the only word I have ever used.

I've named all my cars I've owned, but never thought of naming the fabric collection. I'd have to have two categories: Modern and Historical. Modern I've purchased and the Historical is material collected and passed down from my Mother, Grandmother and a few precious pieces from my Great Grandmother! Same with the sewing patterns!

How do I call my stash? Hey stash, hey stash, hey little stash. Just could not pass up this opportunity. Stash, I call it my stash. My kids call my quilting stuff my "crack." They say I am as addicted as any crack head and even refer to my magazines as "Mom's crack." Those silly kids!

This sounds awesome. I'd LOVE to see your 'historical' stuff....

best part of having the historical fabric, my Great-grandmother was 59 when I was born, so she was very into the modern fabrics (of the time). I have at least 2 or 3 yards that are really slinky, knits that are blinding brights. (late 50's, early 60's) No good for quilting, but very fun to threaten my very conservative daughter with! I also have a 3 or 4 yard cut of bright blue cotton with flocked daisy's on it. I remember having dresses out of similar fabrics, so the granddaughter may yet get a top. It's been protected from moisture and bugs, so it will be fun to work on a small piece of it. Then I save the rest for HER grandchildren! Hmmm, maybe a 3rd category, "Pass it ON"!
