Collect? Who me?



“No one expects the stamp collector to actually mail letters with his stamps. No one expects the coin collector to use his coins in a vending machine for soda. So why does everyone expect me to use my fabric collection to actually sew anything?” I’m not a fabriholic; I’m a fabric collector!"

Can't remember where I came across this statement, but it definetly has me pondering. There are untold hours of joy created from collections, and specfically merely the viewing and enjoying of them.

While I use my fabric, I know that I am not alone in possessing more than I will ever use. Quilting has definetly surpassed a subsistance art and crossed into nutzo hobby territory
.


But hey, I need lots of colors!
