A quote from one of our customers, as she was purchasing about a hundred FQs:

"If I don't feed my stash, it will die."

My standard answer is "Something, Sometime" with a smile.

JudyTheSewer 09-19-2012 07:06 PM

Yep, very true!

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

charmpacksplus 09-20-2012 07:33 AM

Poor sales clerk.... how many times did she ask what I was making and I said "nothing." LOL

Deborahlees 09-20-2012 07:33 AM

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

Lori S 09-20-2012 08:47 AM

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."

bearisgray 09-20-2012 08:50 AM

I just say "I like to buy fabric"

I like that one - I am going to use that next time.

KwiltyKahy 09-21-2012 04:50 AM

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

kydeb 09-21-2012 04:56 AM

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

jj1150 09-21-2012 07:24 AM

OMG!!! I do that all the time ... Buy a half yard of a fabric just because I like it, with no specific quilt in mind. Or fat quarters too :)

gramquilter2 09-21-2012 09:24 AM

Good one. If you see a piece of fabric you like do you really need to have a project in mind?

gigi712 09-21-2012 09:50 AM

Too funny! I'm buying it because I want it... 'nuff said. :)

sueinstitches 09-21-2012 10:00 AM

OH! my gosh that's so true *:shock:

RugosaB 09-21-2012 12:07 PM

Me with another Walmart experience:

As they normally do, "Whatcha making?" I told her, and then she said she asked a customer the same thing a few days ago, about the whole bolt of fur she was buying. The looked to be 80 or so customer told her that her husband just got his implant and they were carpeting the floor in their bedroom with it!

wildyard 09-21-2012 12:27 PM

I just smile and say, I make quilts for charity. I do, so I am telling the truth, and I am not saying that THIS fabric is for that at this time. It probably will go into one eventually!
