    Default You know you're addicted to sewing when...

    ...your DH, while planning vacation, scrutinizes the photos of the potential vacation lodgings carefully to make sure there's a spot with a good view and an outlet, for you to set up your sewing machine in.

    ...you spend more time deciding which sewing machine to bring on vacation than you spend deciding on what clothes to pack. (I still haven't decided; I may bring two!)


    What about you? What gives away your addiction?

    When you go away on vacation and worry more about your sewing machines from theft or fire then anything else.

    When you go to a sewing seminar in Las Vegas -- I'm serious! - - and never hit a casino, restaurant, or show.

    When you are constantly picking thread from your little Morkie's hair.

    When you hit every quilt shop in Alaska and worry about exceeding your baggage limit. I didn't because I packed all the fabric into my carry on but someone in our group had to pay extra for all that she brought.
