    I think someone is sneaking in fabric and adding it to my stash - I have been organizing it and wrapping it up on foam core boards - I don't think its ever going to end...Perhaps, fabric is like rabbits???? (at least thats my story and I am sticking to it).. :)

    I keep getting rid of fabric I won't use and I think it is snicking be home and hidding in my closet. I know I got rid of a couple pieces and then there it is back on the shelf.

    I seem to have the same problem. I tried to reorganize a few months ago so that I could get the piles put away but now the piles are even bigger and I swear I haven't bought any fabs in months. :-) :-)

    With the price getting higher and higher, I wish it would reproduce!

    Ditto!! Thank goodness I have it, though, with the price going sky high I can make quite a few quilts without buying too much more fabric (there are always backgounds and fillers needed - LOL)

    I went looking for the 1/2square triangle square-up ruler that I just bought and found a bag of fabric that I forgot I had. Time to clean the sewing room (yet again!!).

    I thought you meant growing cotton! I plant several cotton plants in my yard planters and use the cotton for stuffing pin cushions.

    Yep, bought a neat ring (like for ties) to organize my rulers on. Had been buying several and trying to keep up with what I had. Goodness...I have more than I thought!! Surely, I didn't buy ALL of these in the past few months!! And I know my fabric is reproducing cause I had to go buy another storage container!!!!

    I was feeling really silly for buying so much fabric and then my sister came by yesterday and saw some of it. She ooohed and aaahed and just rub it and played with it. Guess I'm not so silly after all!! :)
