    It's like you're looking into my life. I feel so much better knowing someone else does this. I do the same with knitting and crochetting - almost done and then on to the next idea.

    I have yet to admit a fabric problem so I don't consider myself an addict yet. So, if you have any Jo Ann Fabric quilt block of the month titled "Pathway to the Stars" I will gladly take it off your hands. I bought the setting kit and the first three or four and then for whatever reason didn't get the rest and now I have searched the web, ebay, and trying to find long lost co workers from the day to beg. I will take you advice and not organize because I would hate to be addicted (LOL) and realize I have the same problem!!

    I started 2011 with the same goal but have ordered and used several boxes of fabric since. I did manage to complete 6 of the ufo tops I found before I got into several other projects. I will complete half of them this year but I didn't stop buying more and adding to the list!

    Sassey, Are you the one to organize the Fabrics Anonymous group here? See my post earlier.

    LOL, I assure you that you have plenty of company including me who are always planning and buying but gets distracted by the first sell that catches my eye. I have lots of quilt kits stuck away, but I have never done one of them. Oh, someday, someday.

    I am Patsy and I am a recovering fabricholic. They say the only way to recover from this disease is one day at a time. I did not buy any fabric yesterday or today, so I think I am on my way to complete recover. We will see what tomorrow brings.

    I like to organize my stash because I get to touch the fabric and imagine all the great things I could do with it. It is my "fix." Not buy fabric? Just got two beautiful panels from Home Sew and I can't wait to turn it into something beautiful.
