I decided I would post pictures of my fabric stash - this stuff is like crack to me.
I love the colours, oh and the patterns, oh and the textures.
I have a hard time bringing myself to actually use some of it - I love it that much.
Hey at least it is not fattening right?
This pile will become two crazy quilt pillows - I don't know for who yet - I bought the blouse at Value Village because I liked the embroidery.
This pile will become a crazy quilt pillow for my mother in-law for Mother's day - she doesn't read the blog.
Notice the colourful fabric at the bottom of the picture? It came from this - I cut it from the inside bottom hem as I didn't want to cut into the actual blouse yet - if I find just the right chair to use for sewing, I will cut into the blouse to make a seat cushion - otherwise it will remain hanging art on my door.
These I have been gathering for some time. Most are large pieces I can use as backing for quilts.
These too. They are to finish the quilt blocks I started making years ago - one day it will be on my bed.
And these.
Oh ya then there are these that I bought from eBay and planned to make into a quilt but my sister suggested a tablecloth and now I am not sure.
I have several ideas floating around in my brain on what to make with all these glorious fabrics - one day I will make them :)
Handcrafted vintage-style journals and all that goes into creating them! May also include bits of my life, my family, my friends, and my other art forms!

Wow! Quite the stash! I love the colours for your mother-in-law's pillow. You are motivating me to pull out my stash and reorganize it. Sometimes I think fabric doesn't get used just because it's not stored with the right other fabrics, and easily accessible...beckoning me to handle it and make something.
wow!! you could supply a store there! :) i know how you feel about not wanting to use it, i am just the same with my scrapbooking stuff :) Debsxx
