isnt that what you're supposed to do?
collect all the pretty fabrics you see and want.
then fondle them whenever you want to.
make designs in your head then get a good nights sleep.
theres something else to do with them?
go figure.

because they're pretty, and then imagine their potential. :-)

I sure hope so, because most of the time all I do is collect fabrics. It
seems like I never get much actual quilting done.

LOL! In my stash, there are several fabrics that I'm sure are just too
pretty to cut. By deciding what to do with them, I would limit their
potential. Guess they are dreaming fabrics.

I only have a couple smaller baskets that I use to hold my scraps.
The smallest ones go into one basket, and the larger pieces into the
other. I'll have to start looking around -- thanks for the
suggestion.

Baskets. This year I finally joined the AQS, and one of their
articles is "Baby Basket" by Anita Shackelford. Somehow that pattern
struck me as so pretty that I just had to do it (you all saw the
results earlier). Then I joined a basket BOM (
http://uk.groups.yahoo.com/group/Basket_CaseQuilters/?yguid=412664849
). Previously I thought that basket blocks were nice, but nothing
spurred me on to do one. Now, I am basking in baskets :-).
