Guilt? Not me. I have no shame when it comes to my quilting stash. I don't bother justifying it to anyone nor do I feel bad because some quilters are fabric starving somewhere. It's fun to be bad over fabric. 8-)

This sounds so much like my room! And yesterday I purchased 3 more pieces for something "special" for church fund raiser. Good excuse...whatever works.

Do post photos as you work on your projects.

A month ago I went through a complete clean up in my sewing room and also found lots of stuff that I had forgotten about! No more of that! I decided to organize my closet by color, not by fabric type. this way "everyone" could get a chance to be used in a quilt. It's also easier to see what colors I'm short of. I gave away lots of fabric to friend who is a new quilter, and now everything has it's place. Only patterns, books and fabric that I really love is in my sewing room. Ooh, does that feel good! ...and can you believe it? I even have more space!

Great going all you quilters!!! I just bought some more fabric too. Just can't resist a good sale of fabrics. Big sale going on thru Saturday in Phoenix. Just can't decide if I should go that far to get more fabric. Oh well, there are other sales, I hope.

I have at least 10 stacks of fabric with pattern atop waiting but keep shopping for new projects then have ADHD deciding what to do, which leads to more fabric. It doesnt' help me much that I have a JoAnnes, Hancocks and 2 LQS within 10 miles of my house

Know that you are not alone lol, we are with you.
The heck with going out to the stores - I am conserving on gas - purchaing online is enabling, especially when they offer free shipping - UGH
Just started to organize my FQ - can't believe how many I have - SHOCKING
