Just how much fabric do you have????

Huh? I see no problem! My motto is "have space need fabric" .... LOL

I have never actually measured what I have. That thought scares me :-| I have piles of fabric all over the place, stashed in places like the footstool and kids closest shelves and bins and bins of scraps. I have it in baggies, and grocery bags and shoe boxes and roller cabinets. I have it on my computer desk, on my dryer and around my sewing machine. ........ I do however have room for just a few more pieces over there in the corner under that chair and over there beside the shoe rack and up there above the curtain rods (just add shelves!).

The more I think about it, the more I think I really need the new directory, could be time for some squishies to be set forth into the world to become what they will when they grow up.

P.S. Thirty plus years ago I was the first woman in 5 western states to be a full time Teamster driver of dump trucks and snow plows and pull down union scale on my paychecks, .........YOU GO GIRL!! *little happy victory dance dedicated to Tammy*

LOL yep, it was the first year I was happy when it snowed! If the snow came.... I got more fabric!!!!!

Hehehehehe... Nah, no problem at all! I have 50 crats and bags of various sizes of garment and quilt fabrics. :)

yes, indeed you do. You don't have nearly enough. .

I''m in the middle of a fairly big cleanup and rootle through my studio. Cleaned out my 4 big drawers of quilting fabric. And my yarn/regular sewing fabric closet. All that's left is my fabric shelf (where the little pieces live) and under my table. I don't think I can count high enough to determine how much fabric I have.

Good heavens...you could open a store! :-) My stash consists, at present, of about 2m of fabric, so I'm drooling. :-) I enjoy hearing how everyone organizes their stash.

OT is not just for "Off Topic". My son still laughs and tells people that, in the middle of the night, when the first flake hit the ground I would sit up from a dead sleep because of the resounding KACHING!! sound it made of the cash register.

Val

I don't have any stash. None at all. So don't even THINK about pulling up the vans to raid it all. ;-)

Only TWO METERS OF FABRIC!!! OMG, you poor misguided child, you need a good S.E.X. intervention from the Stash-R-Us consortium. Maybe we could get a cable station to hold a telethon for you hosted by Fons & Porter and plead for donations to be sent your way.

Val

me too neither!

What has space got to do with anything relating to more fabric??

Confused, Val

There's no such thing as too much fabric! One can never get enough batiks!!! In fact, I don't have NEARLY enough of them. I need a few more to match my hair (which is currently purple). Anybody who thinks they have too many batiks, I'm CERTAINLY happy to help divest you of said fabrics! :) I'm in the directory...

Lisa

How much fabric????

I'll let you know after the move, when I unpack everyth> I spent a couple of hours last night refolding and sorting my stash,

I will take it into consideration though I foresee more stash reduction from this endeavour than stash enhancement LOL

Sounds good to me! ;-)

I have it on good authority that the score poster is often bleary-eyed and semi-conscious when she posts the scores. Who knows if they're accurate or not? *snort*

Besides, I'm not saying the Rockies and Phillies are winning fabric all the time, just every time they play the Cubs. Heck, *everyone* is winning fabric every time they play the Cubs. The only way the Cubs win is if I have the opposing pitcher in my fantasy lineup. (Thanks a lot, John Smoltz. I just traded him for Bronson Arroyo, so the Cubs will win on Friday.)

Just don't back the Cubs and you'll be fine. :)

I try to give out all the squares of one fabric in a half because I know there's no way I could remember from time to time! LOL

Live and learn. DD was helping me stuff the bags and she chose the ones she liked from the stack. I didn't think of the problem with that until they were on their way. KJ
