Since I have the whole house to myself andI don't go out often [well to get more faric or notions] I don't need to be locked up to do my quilting. I will say even at the rate I go I still won't use up all my fabric before I die. I should stop buying but there is always another pretty, or interesting fabric to be bought. I love to piece tops just haven't gotten the quilting part down other than some FMQ. I am so glad I have this hobby.

I would be skinny when I emerged......LOL


I could easily make about 100 tops alone. In my closet I have enough batting to make one quilt start to finish. I would have to have someone slide the rest of the batting under the door, since I keep it in another closet.

I would have turned into a skeleton long before all of my fabric is used up.

Ditto!!!!!!!!!!


I just hope they left me with a bucket or something or I would end up having to use some of the fabric for diapers on myself. :shock: :shock:

I second that emotion ... but wouldn't complain. Since I, too, have the whole house to myself (BIG house ... I raised 3 kids here), it would take me TWO lifetimes to use all this fabric, batting, thread, etc. But ... it sure would be a nice way to live a second life!

I have something fabric related in EVERY room in the house, including the bathrooms because those quilting books and magazines sure make good reading material! :lol: :lol: :lol:

Same here. It would be hundreds of quilts and decades. I would never use it all up. However, that doesn't stop me from buying more fabrics when it calls my name!!! :oops: :oops:
