    I was browsing thru the web last night and came upon your site. Love what I saw - your quilts and blocks are fantastic.

    I just started quilting about a year ago, right after I lost my mother. Although I have completed 4 quilts, I have probably purchased enought fabric for about 100 more.
    (fabric.com is an evil website - but between their sales and free shipping for purchases over $35 - THEY ARE VERY HARD TO RESIST.

    My husband has no idea about all the fabric I have purchased (thank goodness for closets) - but at the same time I am not sure of what I have either.

    I am just finshing up a green quilt made from already printed squares. Will not make that mistake again - very hard to square up the squares.

    Will post it when I have finished it.

    Welcome to the board from Southern California.
    Many of us have a hard time resisting buying fabrics. I could make several hundred quilts, but I still need more!!!

    Hello and welcome from SW Iowa. I love to collect fabric too. The internet and the fabric store are my downfalls. Yet I just keep going back. :lol:

    Welcome June! :D
    I think lots of us have an addiction to fabric.
    I sure do!
