Sounds to me like you need to: 1) Explain what an "allowance" is for; or 2) Hide your stash!!!! or ?? adopt her out to someone who can afford yet another fabriholic??? Funny! and good luck to you! By the way, the bags are adorable!

She started sewing in August and now asks only a weekly basis to go to LQS or just goes down and picks which ones she wants to use for her current bag project. :shock:
How does a house deal with 2 fabricholics? I'm not sure my budget will like it, I know its not the end of the world but she wants me to cut my fabric.
Seriously, her bags are great and she is going to be starting her first lap quilt today.

Beautiful daughter and the bag is so cute. She did a really good job. I am thinking of the fun you two will share throughout your lifetime with this hobby. Lucky you!!! Besides, wouldn't she "inherit" your stash someday? LOL!

what fun-
she is really quite a sewer. this gives me a new insight into my own "whirling dervish" sewing projects on my mother's machine, with her supplies and her fabric when I was a girl...(!!)
she never said a word, but was just always there when I needed her :-D :-D
what a great thought to carry through my day
if you need any extra fabric for her, just drop me a PM. I would love to help w/ another generation of sewers
