I've been using fabrics that seem less enchanting to me now than when I bought them as a sort of 'muslin' -- and if the construction actually turns out well the first time I try it, hey, bonus: I've got a real garment. I'm also trying to line everything I can line, and in extremity, I will just grind out a bunch of bias tape. I've been thinking a simple crayon roll might also make a good stash buster. What do you turn to when you really, really want to stop looking at that fabric that you thought was just this side of too cute, but is, in the harsh light of day, on the other side?
