It feels better to rub your face on a yard of fabric then it does a $10 bill lolol

I used to buy material just because but now I "try" to buy by the project. Its not my fault that beautiful material still jumps out at me :!: :oops: :!:

I buy because the fabric speaks to me; 'buy me, buy me'. It is nice to have the stuff on hand when the mood hits.

Do I need a reason? I'm 52 - if I want a stash - I'll get a stash, Goshdarnit! lol

Of course I have to buy it, I don't own it yet.

1) Can't stop shopping for fabric
2)No time to use sew
3) sells quilts
$) I want to!

Can you think of any good reasons?

I don't sell my quilts ! I give them away :-D

1.I have my stash because for me it is an enjoyment to be able to find great deals.
2.That is only when I shop. I am really frugal.
3. And because my DH says I can have a nice stash.

I love fabric.
A stash saves me getting out in bad weather to go shop.
Buying from online sales saves me tax $ & gas money.
Buying now also prepares me in case I can't buy often after retirement.
My taste in fabric changes from time to time so I have to keep up with what I like at that time.
I am 57 and I am finally able to have & add to my stash when I want.
