I have so many projects that I start and after piecing each block, I'll put it aside and go on to something new. Also, I will cut all the pieces for a quilt and then walk away. I love to buy fabric without a pattern in mind and then bring it home and love every piece but eventually I put it away. My stash is embarrassingly huge. I buy, buy, buy. What's wrong with me?

I'm Jeanne. 56 years of life I've lived. I retired from being a conductor on a railroad and love quilting. I just bought the 830 Bernina. Way too much machine for me. Well, you all seem like me. Nice to meet you. I quilt everyday. My house proves it. I don't worry about cleaning like I use to.

NOTHING. You're perfectly normal.

I keep telling people (and myself) that I am saving for my retirement. I won't be able to afford to purchase much fabric after I retire. Sometimes, I even believe myself. LOL

Hi and welcome from Southern California! It is a disease many of us share-and isn't it great??? We even get a booster when someone posts pictures of their stash (hint-hint-hint)LOL
