Maybe Dr Drew will have a session on quilting addicts. You'd have the addicts hiding stashes of fabric and notions all over the place and if the fabric is confiscated, they'll steal his tie, pry off a bedspring to use as a needle, rig the coffee maker as a makeshift sewing machine and try to quilt with that.

(I think my brain fell down the rabbit hole this morning....must have coffeeeeee)

the kitchen designer thought I had lost it , he couldn't understand someone planning a kitchen around sewing .
Silly man ........

I did the same! Wouldn't let them add anything to my island so I would have a large flat surface. And your right about designer!

I was going through my sewing things the other day and was shocked to see how many things that I have never used.I thought it was a must have at the time it was bought. My sewing room is in such need of a redo. A true quilter you are. Happy quilting.

If too many "what not's" are still in the original packaging, you didn't need them, right? That might mean you are very much an old-fashioned make-do quilter, using minimal tools to create instead of needing all the gadgets!

I'd say you are absolutely a true quilter. Welcome to the club of the most friendly, helpful and wonderful people there are. There is no finer group of people anywhere.

You sound like a true quilter to me!! I am afraid of doing just what you're talking about. I've got to inventory my rulers so I can nip it in the bud!! Thank you!!
