Lisa shares a few ideas for sewing your stash even when the fabrics are really special. Tune in to get ideas about ways to appreciate and cherish your fabric while freeing it from storage. Listen to how she managed to make a complete party dress--from pattern to fabrics to notions--from her stash. She was still on theme for the party AND matched her husband's outfit too.

Projects include putting fabric in embroidery hoops, making picture frames, stitching commemorative quilt blocks, keeping the selvages of fabric for a larger future project (selvages are much easier to store than fabric yardage) and more.
