Any step you want it to be. Could be all 12 steps. each step add a friends name to it and when its finished move on to the next step. hhmmmm Sounds like a good program. You've got a good idea there.
Shop,stitch and give !!!!!!

Think of buying fabric as retail therapy,only we will someday use it in something,only some is so pretty I can't cut it up yet,but someday I will find the right pattern that will just scream for me to use my treasure on,and I will be happy.See it all works out in the end.

Maybe this is what heaven is like. All beautiful colors that we have all chosen for others to enjoy. Keep on buying and adding to my pleasure when I'm up above...

Well I sew garments, accessories, home dec and quilt, so, the stash just keeps getting ahead of me. That's ok, it is my dang money.

My sister is questioning me why I have so much. I just remind her she has a closet full of shoes and purses, dogs and household of knick knacks. Not to mention she does wood working and has more tools than I can count for that. She never say's anything anymore.... LOL!

Sorry ... I guess this is a sore spot with me. People need to realize, when you are driven to sew/quilt. You need supplies! Oh and tools lots of tools. :D

I would rather be a fabriholic then a basket collector. Baskets will only burn for a short time when the heat goes off but, you can continuously layer fabric to stay cozy and warm.

If Rehab was the case then we all need it. But wait a min. But is't Quilting a form of rehab. It sure relaxes me after a hards day of work. There for you are paying for your thearpy by buying fabric.

My daughter said she would quit smoking when I quit buying fabric and ginghers, shes been smoke free for 3 weeks,but I just bought another pair of ginghers,I couldn't agree to her deal,cause I new I couldn't do it. And yes I agree,Pastor said at a funeral sat. heaven would be just what we wanted it to be and our mansions all fixed up for us , can you imagine the stash we'll have with an endless supply and every gingher design there is whoopee.No one to gripe about how big or how much,Don't know if I can take the thought of that.

I honestly do not think that you can have too much fabric, seriously its like a potato chip can you just eat one?

Hi I'm Sue and I also am a fabricaholic. I just got home from JoAnn's after ordering a roll of batting, and spending an additional $165 on fabric. But it was all on sale! Except for the one piece that I used my 50% off coupon. I am soooooo bad. :cry: :lol: :( :lol:
