    Default Fabric is addicting!

    There should be a fabrics anonymous support group for people like me. I spent way too much money on fabric this month. I'm in shock after looking at my credit card statement!

    My problem is that I have several UFOs because I'll go shopping for fabric before I finish a project, then I'll get other ideas for the new fabric and will start on the next project as soon as I get my new fabric home.

    Am I the only one who has this problem?

    it's a problem that we pretend we don't have and will actually deny it. just call us closet fabriholics.

    The trouble with forming a group like fabriholics anonymous is that no one would want to join. I figure it's still cheaper than therapy (of course it's probably getting pretty close) but it is alot more fun. Maybe we should make those fabric companies put a warning - may become habit forming.
