the #1 reason why we should NOT sell our stash!
Recently I sold my stash of Homespun fabrics. Reason..I don't care for homespun fabrics...
anyway..fast track to today..I am making the recipes in a jar to sell at the bazaars and when it came time to cut out fabric for the topper, I walked to my stash, reached the shelf the homspuns have sat on for the last 6 years and shreeked like a girl....in their place was a nice pretty stack of water color batik FQ's....I did not even remember that I had SOLD the homespuns..and now I remember why I had kept them all these years....they are great for homey crafts..s.igh...
so off to hobby lobby I went..I actually had to BUY fabric for these things...ggeeezz...
NEVER sell anything..eventually you WILL need it!

AMEN. It seems I always need what I have just sold all on the bolt, and then am upset with myself. Fortunately, when I held my last sale, my Christmas fabric did not all sell, so I am set to make crafty Christmas items.

Oh no you need to de-stash you've got all of us that are starting we need to build up stash lol besides I can sneak the fabric I buy on here easier into the house than when DH is with me (he doesn't get the mail I do lol)
Besides it's kind of like spring cleaning for everyone to make room for even nicer fabric! So keep on de-stashing everyone for us buying it's like Christmas!
