Perhaps I need a little fabric therapy (going to the LQS & doing a little petting). Am I alone in this nocturnal obsession??

Not alone, and there is not a cure. I have one on the piecer, one on the frame, one ready to be cut, and just came back with the fabric for the one that's in my head. What's worse, I just seen the fabric for the one I didn't know I was thinking about.

When I wake up at night, I think about my quilts. Beats counting sheep any time.

Dream would not be the right word...that would mean I was actually sleeping!! No, I go to bed, and with everything dark and quiet, I close my eyes and start to imagine, plan, design, mentally open my stash drawers to find the right color, try to remember which magazine that certain pattern was in....oh ya, and I was at that web site today and they had a perfect fabric for the sashing....and on and on it goes, night after night, I need my sleep, but I can't stop myself!
