Stash. Own up if you have any stash of any sort

up ?? I didn't type that, autocorrect slipped it in.

Owning up here. I have drawers full of scrap leather, and dozens of fully made up leather and fabric items - purses, bags, pouches, keyrings, wallets etc. I used to sell on Etsy but have stopped since lockdown and now have no idea what to do with it all.

Forgot to mention, art materials, leather making tools, embroidery threads, jewellery making supplies. I tend to switch from one hobby to another, but always need something crafty to do. On with cross stitch at the moment.

Phoenix you are in good company - DD has a stash of make up and hair products. I have enough material to make myself half a dozen dresses and enough wool to knit about 20 jumpers and cardigans. But only two sewing machines.

My stash, has given me lots of pleasure and I felt that it is therapeutic and have enjoyed the hobbies, in the past I have made flowers out of tissue paper, made a wooden sign, and while the Lockdown is upon us all, I have made a Punch n Judy puppet theatre out of old timber I had leftover from a job that needed doing, plus enjoyed upholstery

stash has been a lifeline for many, get an idea and go straight to it.

I added to my stash this weekend, I have some printed medium weight upholstery fabric left after making 2 sofa seat covers and a tablecloth and have cut out for a large cushion to do when the weather gets bad. It is a beautiful fabric, like linen but is cotton. I have a big sample piece downstairs and will need to wash it, I think it will shrink and in that case I will wash all of what is left. It will make a lovely indie skirt and go with many colours

zips, thread, interfacing and swedish tracing paper used from stash. I also used a notcher, one of those must-haves that you don`t know you need until you have one. I also used my gorgeous olfa quilting rulers, superb for getting a straight line on a length of fabric

I am shortly going to add to my stash, zips, overlocking cops and several tailors chalks in colours, the triangle ones

oops, I eant to add that I will be adding to my needle felting stash on a monthly basis from the end of this month. I am treating myself to an animal kit once a month. I will need things to do over winter

PEars soap

I haven't bought Pear's soap for years. I don't think the online supermarket we use sells it but I now have a hankering for it.

I want to make inroads into my fabric stash and thank goodness that I kept an inventory with samples. I want denim type fabric for another skirt. Fingers crossed
