A while back I had the pleasure of attending a talk by Mark Lipinski (formerly of Quilter's Home Magazine) who was so funny, we were rolling in the aisles. As he showed us his beautiful quilts, he just tossed them into a pile on the floor. A large gasp went up from the assembled quilters and he said
"Ladies, relax, it's only fabric." Try to think of that when you go in your sewing room to play - it's only fabric.
