Have you ever gone into your sewing room and discovered fabric that you swear you've never seen- and don't remember buying? (Blackout!)
If you answer "yes" to even one of these questions, my friend, you have a fabric monkey on your back!
I'm sorry, I can only diagnose, I cannot heal this grave illness. If I ever climb over the mountain of cottons in my sewing room, maybe I can find that psycology book that I lost...and a cure!
Yes, he's one of those cute little sock monkeys. His outfit is a quilted vest and patchwork short pants. He whispers in my ear and tells me that I NEED that fabric, book, notion or thread. He sits beside me in the car and turns into every fabric store. He's on my pillow at night throwing yards of beautiful fabric into my dreams. He's my friend! His first name is Mustav, his last name is Fabric.
