    I have been very Bad! I went online this morning and browsed the sale at Fabric.com....An hour later i checked out with a 37.00 total after the coupon code and got Free shipping. So i now have over 10 yds of fabric coming and i have no idea what i am going to do with it yet. Santa will be SO MAD! I keep telling myself..."no more fabric" I have absolutely NOOOOOOOO willpower. I think i need to have DH take away my laptop for a few months. I hope i am not the only one with this "illness"
    I am starting to scare myself. Any advise on how to stop being so compulsive?????????

    I've taken a break for even looking - sale or no sale. It's going to be a tough winter with a frigid Dec. & gas prices going up by the day.

    Go in your sewing room and start organizing your fabric and all your scraps..... And you will feel like you just purchased more fabric, At least it keeps Me from buying more.
    I know how compulsive I am too, but I just keep telling myself enough is enough!

    I have no advice. Santa will be skipping my house as well. I'm a ConnectingThreads.com junkie, although fabric.com has its share of my money as well...

    After the fourth box from Connecting Threads came this last week, my DH said he should think about buying some stock in the company. LOL.
    BTW, the fabric samplers I bought for 50% off from CT are so nice! I have no plans for any of the fabric, just a great sale price that couldn't be passed by.

    I have started to delete the fabric shops e-mails before I can read them.
