I have discovered a love for fabrics that I never knew I had.
Now I can not pass something without touching it, and when I walk into a fabric store, I feel like a kid in a candy store. All those colors, textures, smells, etc.

I love seeing it spread out, I love seeing it cut into stacks, or rolled into jelly rolls, I love seeing it folded into neat little piles, or even the scrap heap that collects from cuttings.

I love the feel of a quilt top, and can not help but admire the way it all comes together.

(not to mention the desire to purchase every piece of fabric I see for sale on here, sucks to be broke)

Am I a fabric addict?

You are on the wrong board if you are not!! I've been this way since about age 8 and it never gets better.

join the crowd - went shopping with a friend yesterday & she bought some beautiful batiks. I was so glad she was driving because I got to 'caress' them on the ride home. lol
