OK Looks like the shelves are still bending in teh middle. Better sew more quickly. LOL. Love your stash. Mine started out with that much and now half as much. By choice. I hate for all that fabric to sit there. So another way to look at it is, we collect fabrics like dolls, clowns, etc. No way to ever use it all. ♥

Hey, Featherweight! Good to hear from you. You're welcome to come shop at Betty's and lunch would be fun.

All kidding aside, thanks much. Would love to see you again.

I hope when you want something from the top shelf that you have someone else get it for you. That is unless you are very tall. LOL

Nope, only five feet and one quarter inch so I have lots of step stools, a grabber and a tall husband.

At least you have some of the better quality fabric, some of the fabric that I have seen lately has not been very good qaulity.

Yes, I thought about that too. I have shades that I close when the sun is coming in that window. Thanks so much for noting that though, I very much appreciate it. Wouldn't that be a bummer to have the sun fade some of those beautiful colors before I even got a chance to use it?

That's the way I feel about my sewing room too. It is my little world to escape. My DH knows where I am and I have my fur baby, Shadow, to keep me company. It is my safe haven.
