I swear it's a conspiracy. I thought paper scrapping was expensive and now my favorite paper company is doing fabric (Basic Grey)... And then a few minutes ago I stumbled upon some very cool fabric from "My Mind's Eye"... Aack!!! I have about 50 projects I want to do and can't stop buying fabric!!!! Please dont tell me there are other companies that have converted to fabric! Actually do... ha!! I def need to go on a fabric diet. Thanks for listening to my rant, but thought some of you might be able to relate!!! :oops: :roll:

I thought I'd kicked that habit and left the scrapping world behind. Now you tell me they're making fabric! Now that I think about it those scrap paper lines would translate nicely into quilting fabric. I'm off to check out that website. This could lead to a serious relapse. ;)

I have fabric dependency issues. Dr. Drew has not been successful in his attempts to wean me off. I occasionally suffer severe withdrawls and the only thing that works is a fabric fix.

I don't think a "junkie" like me will be of any help to you.

Did you hear that......the fabric is calling me, again!

:lol: :lol:

I currently have about 12-15 quilts in different stages of completion. With all the spring/summer fabrics coming out I can not tell you how hard it is to resist. Luckily I dont have any money atm so that helps! HAHA Seriously though I dont think it ever gets better...just worse. Everything is a must have...and dont even get me started on sales as a way of justifying... but at least you have lots of company? *hugs*

I went to my LQS this weekend just for some fabric for a quilt for my dog and was not buying anything else. Well $150.00. I walked out with a huge bag of fabric from there $5 table 1/2 yard min.

I too am an enabler. :roll: :lol: :oops: :evil:

All of us might be able to relate - without a doubt.
