The woman must have catered to her family for years to let them think they could do this to her. If the house was clean and not unsafe then it was a power trip for her DD, nothing else.

The only problem I see about what he says, is that I DON"T think I have a Fabric Clutter Problem - & purge is an evil word.

No. While I do want to work on my stash, I can't do it this way as I will need three months off from work to question each crumb of fabric...:)

I have been down sizing and cleaning things out and giving things to Goodwill. But fabric is a no no. I don't have a huge stash but I will use it and I love to do scrappy quilts. Being a hoarder is one thing where a person can't live in their house but hey we need fabric to sew!!

I had enough of Mr. Walsh when he had a man sell his baseball card collection. The man has no concept of why some of us collect what we do collect. I suspect that Mr. Walsh has no idea how fabric is used - why we buy it and how we use different fabric to make a quilt or even a garment. Not all "clutter" is junk, dirt, or garbage.
