    Not a problem. At least you are using your stash.

    Hi my name is Tammy and I'm a fabricholic it has been less than a week since my last purchase.

    Nope, I sure don't see anything wrong with what you have going on. As long as we aren't storing in the bathtub there is no problem.

    I will say I am thinking of joining the moratorium 2013 just so I can make room for new stuff but then that defeats the entire purpose of the project--lol :-)

    My Name is Lori , like the post before me, it has been less than 8 hours since my last purchase. I started with a sewing room about 10x10... then came the rolls of batting, the fabric on bolts, etc... I expanded to consume most of my basement. Even put a bed there .. which is now the perfect quilt storage system.. I just lay one on top of another.
    I figure I will have to start digging a basement expansion is a few years . If I tell myself I will have to dig with a spoon that will deter me.

    aside from decorating my tree today, I'm going to re-arrange my fabrics....yet again! I love to sort through my stash. It helps me plan my next project. You are SO not alone!

    Oh yes! I have a big problem with space. Ever so often I reorganize, but then I start new projects which tears up all the organization. And of course I must buy new supplies to help with the projects!

    No I do not see a problem. Atleast your fabric is making it into tops and quilts. some of mine just sits there for my visual enjoyment.

    My thoughts exactly.
