Sharin'Sharon please learn how to drive! I have a sister who is 90 now, but she has had to depend on anyone and everyone to take her to the Dr, store, shopping, etc,etc,etc. It is not funny when you are alone. Just trying to be nice in my thoughts. You really, really need to learn. It's never too late.

Well, I found a way to keep DH to stop complaining (he just likes to make noise) about the fabric I have. Just find someone on the boards who has pictured their stash and show him what a "real" stash looks like! I just did that and got a "holy cow, you don't have that much! Is that a quilt shop?" Hehehe!

I have a sweetheart for a husband - when we go on trips he will find the quilt shops and stop so I can look - he takes more time looking than I do. When I talked about needing a bigger room to sew in he thought I should take over the family room. He never blinks an eye at what I bring home - He's a keeper!

My DH is an accountant: he thinks I should do a photo record if each piece in my stash, file them according to heaven only knows some method,and do a monthly account of what' there! I remind him that the value of fabric I got 20 years ago has gone up more than his stocks and bonds! Any idea of what I'm going to do with him after he actually retires in a month? Too bad he won't learn how to rip seams!

Last Fall I decided I really should try to use what I have in my stash and not buy any fabric in 2013. Well, that worked for 5 months or so. But really I have been pretty good I think. I do know my stash is NOT as large as many. Not buying yarn doesn't count as I don't have a stash of that.

Does your dh fish, doesn't he have all kinds of hooks, luers, etc. Ask him if he would like you to get rid of them. He can't use all them every time he goes fishing. Your stash isn't any different than his fishing equipment or even tools. My dh is a gadget man. He loves gadgets of any kind. He did ask once if I had enough material. I looked at him and asked if he had enough gadgets. He laughed and said no. I laughed and said dito. I made an agreement with him, he doesn't buy any more gadgets and I won't buy any more material. I am still buying material. LOL
Enjoy your stash!
Enjoy your stash!
