    I do that all the time. Glad I'm not alone. ...and here I sit at the computer, not making anything.

    You are not alone. My problem is that every pattern I see, sale told about on here, templates, etc. I buy. I'm going broke. I may have to go cold turkey for a month or so from looking on here. I thought I was done purchasing for the year. Then saw another post...loved the tut, ordered the templates. I am not going to order in 2011, I am not going to order in 2011, I am not going to order in 2011.....I hope!

    Just today I started a binder, with only 25 sheet protectors. The label I put says "Things I really, really, really want to make."
    Some are easy gifty-things and some are really difficult quilts. Some are patterns I've already purchased and some are xeroxed copies from books and magazines I've purchased. Some are really off the beaten path for me.
    My plan is to go through this binder one-by-one for 2011 and quit bouncing all over the place.

    But it's so much fun here :D

    I have that same problem here. I need to live forever to finish my "I want to do this" list.

    Me too!!! Me too!!! I am so inspired by all of the wonderfully creative ideas from so many on this board!! I may not be able to make them all but it is so much fun looking at everyone's pics and chatting about different techniques!!! I will try hard to accomplish a few 'special' projects!! Unfortunately, so many ideas but so little time!! :)

    I have a folder on my desktop. If I see a quilt I like I right click and save it to that folder. When I feel a little dry and need inspiration I open it, see all the quilts, and before I see them all I am sewing, and is not even similar to any of the quilts saved. Just there to provide inspiration.
