Oh what a day for that question!! hahaha
I spent the morning in my disaster area and am taking a lunch break.
This past summer it was so hot that it looks like I bought a TON of fabric: blenders, batiks, solids for backings, charm packs and jellyrolls galore!
Most of what I bought is good for anything but I went a bit bonkers on batiks :D

I need about 100 people to come help me. Any volunteers?? My husband is a fab cook and will feed you all hahaha

Uh... sounds like you have so much "eye candy" there that everyone's appetite would be spoiled anyway, so your husband would not have to spend much time in the kitchen!

whatever I can get my hands on! When I moved here from Ohio, my huge box of fabric(mostly scraps given to me, and remnants,) wouldnt fit on the truck- that truck was packed full! So I didnt sew/quilt for a while. Im up to about a shoe box size now LOL, but I've been adding whatever I can, lots of solids and vintagey type patterns that Ive been finding at garage sales. I walked into my first LQS, just got 2 FQ, but I wanted half the store LOL. Im really loving lots of Moda prints-so classic and I love Joel Dewberry. Doing lots of window shopping on Etsy!
