I can put up a 4-5ft shelf above a window in my sewing room
    You say that, but I thought the same thing when I purchased a lot of nice fabrics from a liquidation sale. Still need whites and solids...I am trying to use it up.

    Hoarder or not, what a generous friend !! It's so hard to bypass fabric that you really love though. Lucky you.

    It must be so fun for you to get all the fabric you want for your projects! What a special gift!

    It's a beautiful star quilt you've made for her family. I like the modern touch you made of the different blocks with the red and black. I always enjoy seeing your photos you post.
