I depend on it, since I can't afford an entire quilt's worth of new fabric at one time!

From what I hear a man like that is hard to find, I love sharing my life with my husband , he is all I could wish for in a husband , and he cooks too, B.E.G. I am in the winter of my life ( no spring chicken) hope to love and live a few more years of my life, I have enough projects in my mind to keep me until I am 100, keeps me young, :lol:

I really added to my stash while I was working; now that I'm retired and income is limited I appreciate the stash that much more.

My fabric is entertainment for me. When I get down in the dumps I go in there and just look through it. I always find something that I had forgotten about. Most times I swear that someone else bought that, I have never seen it in my life!!!!!!!!!! But I love every piece of it, and could not do without one piece. When I have to take a fat quarter to guild for swap,it pains me to have to let one go! Dean

Really enjoy having a stash, like the Family better an know what's important between the 2 :)
It's is so nice tho to walk into the room and have what you need to start, or add to one in progress, no matter when inspiration hits. Don't live too near a fab store, far from the one with the best prices. Kinds kills the mood when you have to go searching, sometimes nothing looks good on those planned trips. JMO
Happy Stashing :)

With prices going up so fast I am so glad to have my stash. I don't shop as much as I used to because I don't want to pay those prices. Thank goodness for sales and Connecting Threads.

Very very important. I am now using up my stash (I have a couple of years worth) until I can afford to buy more.

I am thankful that my whole stash wasn't down in the basement. I am like the rest of you--I enjoy taking it out and looking at it and dreaming at what it will become. That's the artist in all of us!
