It's like any addiction. It starts likes yours. And you think you have it under control. And, little by little, you realize you have no control and that the addiction owns you. You say you'll drive right by the LQS (or JoAnns or wherever you buy your fabric) on your way to the grocery store, but you can't help yourself. Before you know it, your sewing room is overflowing. It would be very hard for you to reverse your process at this point. Your stash will own you soon.
