No, mine wouldn't. I use alot of mine when I don't feel like shopping for more. Then when I do, I just replace. I wish I did have enough for the floor to cave in!!!!!

Wow, its a good thing my sewing room is the old garage, concrete floor. I just bought a truck load of fabric over the weekend. Seven large boxes of fabric came in and 2 went out. And a new to me quilt frame and a new to me sewing machine! Honey told me a few weeks ago "NO MORE FABRIC!" Boy did I show him! Couldn't pass up the deal $200 for all of it, yep $200.

Wow that house must have been in really bad shape structurally, it might be possible - but more likely the joists were already failing, rotted or damaged by termites etc
I have a one story on a conc slab so no worries there ... but my Closet shelves could give way someday !!

I don't have to worry about that happening to me. My stash isn't that HUGE & I only have a one story house.

Now you all have me thinking, how would you explain that to an insurance company? I'm in a 3rd floor apartment of a 100 yr old building with old gas lines running thru out. Maybe I will keep this story between us my DH does not need to know, and my small stash can grow quietly

My husband always tells me the house is going to cave in if I buy any more fabric, but till now did not believe it could happen. My sewing room is on our third level, so I guess I'd better be careful.
