    Of course. For me I like to have fabric on hand so I don't need to run to the store every few days. Yes, some people have collected a lot of fabric, but I'm sure many of them actually USE it.

    My reasoning for buying so much fabric is that the cost of fabric will increase so buying it now will save me money.

    We can do anything we want ! We are the masters of our crafts. there is a lot of thinking before we quilt. There is a lot of planning to turn out a quilt. Our stash just opens the doors to our passion of quilting, It opens us up our imagination to glorious things. and we must continually add to the stash to enable ourselves to grow and prosper and be happy.
    So buy buy buy and think of it as fuel for the soul. :!: ;) :)

    If you like a fabric, you have to get it before it is gone. They change so much!! I already would like to find some of the older ones, and have only been quilting since 2005.

    3) sells quilts

    Can you think of any good reasons?
    1) When I need motivation I feel I'm in a quilt shop.
    2) I need lots and lots of color in my life.
