SewStash: Fabric Inventory

Standing in a fabric shop wondering if you already own this. Buying the third yard of the same navy poplin. Knowing there is enough backing fabric somewhere in the cupboard, but not which bin.

SewStash puts your entire stash in your pocket. Offline, private, your choice of plan.

🧵 EVERY KIND OF STASH
• Fabric — fibre content, width in inches, yardage, colour and whether it is pre-washed
• Patterns — pattern company and the yardage and width it needs
• Notions — zips, interfacing, elastic, thread, buttons
• Yarn — weight, brand, dye lot, skeins, yards and grams

📸 PHOTOS THAT MAKE IT USABLE
• A photo of the actual fabric beats any description you could type
• Capture with the camera or pick from your gallery
• Bulk add mode — photograph and enter a pile of new fabric in one pass instead of one form at a time

📐 YARDAGE THAT STAYS ACCURATE
• Deduct on use — cut two yards for a project and the remaining yardage updates itself
• Usage history per item, so you know what a piece became
• No more guessing whether the remnant is big enough

✂️ WHAT CAN I SEW RIGHT NOW
• Enter what a pattern needs and see which of your fabrics actually satisfy it
• Filter your stash by type, colour, storage location, minimum width or tag
• Turns "I have nothing to sew" into three real options

🗄️ WHERE IS IT
• Define your bins, shelves, drawers and boxes
• Every item knows which one it lives in
• Find the backing fabric without emptying the cupboard

🧮 EXTRAS
• Quilt yardage calculator for backing, binding and borders
• Full CSV export

🔒 OFFLINE AND PRIVATE
• Works with no signal — fabric shops and craft fairs are full of dead spots
• Everything stays on your phone. No account, no login, no cloud
• The app requests almost no permissions at all

WHY SEWISTS CHOOSE IT
• Choose how you pay — monthly, yearly, or one payment that never renews
• Bulk entry, because a stash is not built one item at a time
• Deduct-on-use yardage instead of a static list that goes stale in a month
• Photos, locations and search that work in the shop, offline

PERFECT FOR
• Quilters with more fat quarters than shelf space
• Garment sewists tracking yardage, width and fibre content
• Knitters and crocheters cataloguing yarn and dye lots
• Anyone who has bought fabric they already owned

FREE AND PREMIUM The free version holds 30 items with photos, locations, bulk add, usage tracking, CSV export and the calculators, and a short ad adds 5 more slots. Premium removes the item limit and the ads. Choose a monthly or yearly subscription, or a one-time lifetime purchase.

Recent changes:
• Editing a used-up fabric no longer puts its full yardage back.
• Double-tapping Save or Save All no longer creates duplicates.
• The width filter accepts comma decimals like 44,5.
• Photos are kept if the app is closed while the camera is open.
• CSV yardage keeps eighths (0.125) instead of rounding.
