This may come as a shock to some quilters, but it’s possible
to own too much fabric. If you come home from shopping and discover that there’s
no room for the lovely new cotton prints you just bought, it might be time for
a purge. Sure, you could rush off to Ikea or The Container Store for a new
storage solution, but you’re really only postponing the inevitable. Sooner or
later everyone needs to go through their stash and decide what stays and what
goes. As you look at each piece, ask yourself, “Do I actually have plans for this?”
“Am I as happy with this today as the day I bought it?” “Will this work well
with other prints I own?” “Might this be useful in a number of different
projects?” and most importantly, “Do I really love it?” If the answer is no to
too many of these, add the piece to a bag or box to be donated.
