Over the weekend, I had an opportunity to pick up additional fabric for my stash.  First, let me explain something.  I never had a stash before.  Not a ‘real’ one.  I’ve always purchased the fabric I needed for personal projects and then gave the remainder of the fabric away.  When I started designing and piecing quilt projects for quilt shops, again, I’d use the fabric I needed for that project and would give the leftovers away to someone who was low on money but high on using every scrap of fabric they received.  The only fabrics that I saved were those that were special to me – such as the Texas Hill Country fabric lines that Moda sold a few years back.  Everything else?  Gone.

Until.

My dream quilt studio was in the planning stages.  And since then, I have been hoarding not only the fabrics I need on a regular basis…but, also building up my stash with some yardage and not just the fat quarter bundles that I usually have leftovers of.

Hence, an increase in my fabric stash this past weekend.  Behold!
