    I believe it is all how you think. I may be kicked out also, but I do believe you can have too much stuff. For me, if I have fabric falling off the shelves and patterns stacked and piled I get to focused on the mess.

    Nope, not alone! Wish I could destash, but I would only wind up filling it back up in no time. Now I am a little more selective in my purchasing...and really, really try not to buy another pattern, but that doesn't work either. There is so much to love in every aspect of quilting that you can't help overstocking:-)Did I hear Hello my name is????

    I feel that way about my patterns, Am I really going to use them all in my lifetime

    I don't have enough fabric to worry about that I just get fabric for patterns in mind

    I think most of us have the same problem.

    What a GREAT idea!!!!! I have so much fabric and so many patterns - now all I have to do is make a DECISION about which pattern to use with which fabric.... It will take me some time, but "kitting" a few up will make a HUGE difference for my peace of mind!! Of course I'll have to buy more fabric to fill in the holes- oh darn! Thank you for the idea!

    If you have to ask the question "....too much fabric...?" then I suspect you already know the answer - OF COURSE NOT, SILLY!!!
    What you do have is a lack of organization. Work on that, one pile at a time until you get it all under control, OR continue to work in the "mess. :>)
