Wyldwych, I would have bought the left hand fabric in a heartbeat for my foster kid quilts.
|
Proud of ya, girl. You've finally seen the light.
|
I love opening my cupboard and seeing all my fabrics. I can remember where I got them all, and it makes me happy to sit and think about all the possibilities that may come from all that virgin fabric.
|
My husband is flabbergasted at how much fabric I have- and it's barely anything! I just started building a stash! Little does he know how much really goes into it......
|
somebody hacked into my account and now the bank has closed my debit card and is issuing me a new one. while i wait for it, i am without funds on line. i have cash for stores, but i'm at home. it is the first time i have been successful with the fabric moratorium. not sure this is healthy! lol.

I am still a noobie too. yesterday I was at Joanne's and wanted to get some fabric to make a 7 year old boys quilt. I walked that store 3 times and couldn't find a fabric I like and couldn't think of a pattern to start with.....so I bought more black/white fabric quarters. I just can't stay away from the whole black/white color scheme. Then we went to Wal-Mart and I bought several yards of particular crackle pink I had previously purchased from them and couldn't find (THAT taught me that when I buy something bty in the future to purchase LOTS of it!) and more black/white fabric quarters. I have enough black/white fabric quarters to make many quilts from. I just finished my second quilt last night (black/white themed) am almost finished with my son's quilt top (black/white themed with red). I quilt slowly, but I purchase rapidly!!!LOL

Look into my eyes: you will build a large stash and have a couple of tubs filled with scraps. <Do ya think it worked?>LOL
welcome to the world of stashing: Yes you may find it next week on sale or NOT; YES you may not like it; but someone else will and want something made out of it, lets see what else ? Ohhhhhhhhh the colors: yes yes; you may never find that coloring again !LOL |
You figured it out, Noob! (How cute is that word?!)
|
I have been building a stash since about 2001. When I started I
was only buying 1/4 yard cuts and if I liked it A LOT then I bought 1/2 to 1 yard. That was BEFORE I started quilting. Now I have so much fabric that I have a dedicated room for fabric (youngest daughters old bedroom) separate from my sewing room (formerly known as a dining room). |
NOT have a stash???!!! Horrors!!! Would rather give up chocolate!!
