We talk a lot about stocking up on supplies as insurance against the lean times. Well, now's the time for me to dip into my stash and see what I can do with what I've got. Makes me very glad I'm not a one-project-at-a-time, buy-it-when-I-actually-need-it kind of gal!
I haven't bought any fabric since the end of November. If I'd known then what I know now, I might have stocked up on a bolt of white muslin and looked for some bloody shark fabric, but that's okay. I've got my stash of white sheets to dip into and if I get that top done that's going to need the sharks, I'll be able to come up with a backing.

That's my goal, too, to use up a good portion of my stash. It's just too darn easy to buy fabric online. I have to use before I buy again!
Stash can be translated as "insulation" or "retirement plan." Keep your focus. Bloody sharks? Gotta ask.....
I am also looking forward to see your bloody sharks creation....
I love to have a stash to pull from. I feel successful if I can make a project out of 75% what I have and 25% new purchases.
I agree! I was at quilt shop yesterday and did not see anything I loved more than my established stash, especially at these new prices, yikes! I really want to use what I have!
Let me know how much of the "bloody shark fabric" you need.
