    I found myself in this mode too, I need to kick myself in the butt to get working on the projects sometime!

    count me in on this one, too. there are some things in life that really are chore--this is NOT one of them! sliding that iron across the fabric is such a satisfying thing--and seeing the colors getting a little "richer" from the starch/steam/pressure is delightful. it feeds my heart and hands...

    OK folks, clue me in here. What's a waller? Not a good thing, I'm thinking.

    You ever seen one of those movies where someone throws money on the floor and just rolls around in it? Well that it wallowing.

    Yes, yes! And at quilt shows I want so much to feel the quilts, a pleasure to me as great as looking at them.

    Ooooh, wallowing. Yes, of course. Now, that's a good thing!

    I love to look at and feel fabric and my favorite stores have fabric. Even if I am not buying I love to feel the textures and look at the colors.

    It's so funny - i just did that Sat. nite! it's like busy sewing. You don't really have to pay alot of attention, you just drift along with your thoughts until an idea for that piece of fabric comes to you, then you have to stop and jot it down but then you get back into the zone again. it's awesome
