I am stasher but very selective at that..I stash batiks and blenders and some beautiful large florals, all of which I love and will use. I starting buying some materials for stashing when I realized that I wanted the freedom of creativity it provides me! I don't have more than 100 yards in my stash which includes some "kits" I put together for future projects, FQs and yardage. So compared to many, not a large stash, but sufficient for me. Since I have had my stash, I made many quilts entirely using fabrics from it and almost all started with fabrics I got from my stash then took it to he LQS to add coordinates. My fabrics are color coordinated in clear plastic drawers and just looking at them inspires me! Never been a materialistic person, but I Love my stash :-P
