AMEN !
Love those fabric stashes! So nice to be able to afford fabric just
for fun and the time to appreciate it.

My point was that most people who sew don't do it because they _have_
to. Even some who are unusual sizes. (I'm 4'9" tall, and I don't have
to sew modern clothes, except for hemming a lot of them, if I don't
want to.) People sew because they enjoy it. Yes, we've certainly
passed the days when almost every woman who wasn't working in a
factory 16 hours a day did home sewing. But then, some of them found
it a pretty dreary duty. It's much nicer for people to be sewing for
fun, enjoying their fancy sewing machines, their emboidery machines,
their 4-color sewing magazines, and their huge fabric stashes.
