My red dilemma

I'm not sure if it is a good dilemma or a bad one. Here is my over sized bin of reds.And the top view.
I was only able to find 3 more reds that were darker and looked good with the rest.
BUT, what fun I had looking through the reds. I came home tired from working all day at the store and this immediately energized me. Try to tell me having a stash is not a good thing!

  2. I agree. Playing with a bin of fabric is like a kid playing with a bin of toys. Fun!

  4. The reds that you do have are gorgeous. I am sure that you will have no problem finding more should you need them.

  22. My red collection looks so similar to yours. Vrry few lights and for me even less mediums.
    I do have more deep darks though.

  23. YOUR STASH is unbelievable ! But I know how many years you have been collecting it too.

    And the thing is your collection seems to be timeless where most of us tend to buy what's 'in' at the time.

  24. What a great collection of reds, Wanda! Red is a neutral, don't you know... at least in my planet. It goes with everything!
    Do I sense a Christmas set of blocks with your previously cut green strips?
