    Oh no or atleast not yet. Looks like you might have to reorganize and store some of your stash at another place to regain work space. Well once those prices go up you will still have plenty of fabric to sew. Hmmmmm if you are snowed in with this weather you might want to take some days to go through everything. Looks like a wonderful space. I got to watch it too. My room tends to slip fuller over too and not just my stuff but from the kids also. Time to put my foot down and start sewing.

    Um..only in my dreams. Just throw everything you don't want in a box and send it to me. I'll pay the postage, lol! Either that or build shelves in the center isle of the room, like a library of fabrics, so you can get it all up off the floor.

    Gosh, I wish I had so much to choose from. I live in the country and have to travel to even find any fabric.

    Jacquie,

    Hey. You could host your own quilting retreat and the others wouldn't have to bring any fabric. Bet that would help you a whole bunch.

    Too bad Oklahoma is so far from Arizona or I'd vbe the first to volunteer to 'help' you.

    Also am glad you don't have pictures of my stash.

    Do you have a good quilting buddy or a sister who could help you get this organized? I see piles of beautiful fabric that would make wonderful quilts but you do need to have room in there for you. I'm sure a local quilt guild or church quilting group would love to help you out by taking some fabric that no longer thrills you. Good luck with all of this because it is hard not to buy fabric for many quilters. You are not alone with this "little" fabric problem.

    My measly stash would barely fill the top shelf of your cutting table. I'll send you some empty boxes to fill if you'd like.
    I hope you have insurance!
