    I am a sucker for any new gadget that comes around for quilting and justify it by thinking it will somehow perform magic and have everything come out perfect. Of course, it is the nut behind the wheel that makes it happen and not the wheel but I do have fun trying. Sometimes they actually do work! I keep telling DH that I just try to keep the economy going but he does not see it that way. THAT is another story altogether!!

    My huge stash that I am now attempting to sell is proof of my addiction. I don't think I have ever gone into a quilt shop without buying fabric. More often than not the fabric I buy is not for a planned project; I just like it. So, since I don't know what I will do with it, I usually buy 3-5 or so yards, just in case I need that much. And buttons and trims are always calling me too. Just because. I think I am just a frustrated artist with no known talent.

    I did something the other day, went to joannes for something other than fabric, oh it was sooo hard to pass that fabric! which at that time didn't have much money to buy fabric anyway, but if I did, wonder if I would have still passed it by???

    I am an addict also but at least it doesn't harm my body, family or friends. I am having a lot of fun and it helps to stay busy, otherwise I would be an old grouch.

    You guys are so funny! I recently emptied my sewing room, and felt the same way, only I didn't have time to even digest it...had to get painting and put new flooring in. When I put things back, I plan to be MUCH more organized, and I'm sure that I'll need to ahem....'weed' out because I know that I could be right there with you as far as the 12-step program!
