Due to our various moves, much of my sewing and quilting supplies were in storage for a number of years (not intentionally, it's just the way events came about). We also had a few family needs that required the use of my sewing room as a home/bedroom for various relatives at difficult times in their lives, which meant my sewing was packed in boxes and relegated to the garage/attic.
I have many quilt tops where I made up the blocks and put them together, but never was able to finish the actual quilt with batting, back, and binding.
I have several projects in which I bought the fabrics and the pattern, but never put the quilted piece together. These include tablerunners, tablecloths, wall-hangings, small quilts and other pieces.
I bought other patterns for future use as quilted/sewn gifts for various people.
And last, I have several projects given to me by other people to finish or repair.
Over the next few months, I plan to finish these quilts/projects or pass them on to someone else to do (and to keep, if its stuff I'm no longer interested in).
My ultimate goal is to NOT have a fabric stash.
After finishing up these projects, I plan to move on to other hobbies which I enjoy so much more, and will probably not return to quilting or sewing, except for the occasional project.
Time to clean up this sewing room!
