Decided there were four I did not want to do, so sold the panels (thank you to those that bought them). The remaining ones I am working through. That is not to say I haven't created more, thanks to this great board, but they don't get hidden and they don't require any new material purhases - so I don't count them :) So one by one - rather than two by two :) - I am getting through my collection of things that need to be done. |
I'm a collector too, but do manage to finish some things along the way.

Hi,
I cleaned out my stash and gave bags to the Salvation Army so someone else could use all of them.After all the clutter was gone I could concentrate on what I could do with what I had left which was still a room full,I haven't regretted cleaning out everything.Jetta |

He just doesn't get it - ignore him and keep doing what you're doing.

cant say no if someone wants to give me fabric, sewing stuff , but I am have the time of my life , and dont intend to stop. |
My husband keeps wondering when I am ever going to use the fabric stash I have instead of buying new fabric for each project. He cannot understand this and as I have all my fabric stored in a large bookcase, there is no place for me to hide them. I just don't know how I can use those dark fabrics I bought when I started quilting and had no idea of what I was doing at the time. They are beautiful, but I am not good at matching them with anything else. Any ideas out there????

and with me being a beginner! got stacks of material, projects to do, and some I have started and not finished, and where has the day gone?

Aw, cant you be a quilting collector? You have to collect alot of fabric to make quilts, lol!
I justdont think men understand! |
