I say that all the time. If it weren't for quilting, no one could stand to be in the same room with me for more than a minute. However, though I continue to window shop, I made a New Year's resolution for 09 that I would try to decrease the size of my stash. I think I've made 20 quilts just from the stash (yes, fronts and backings) and have yet to make a noticeable dent in the stash. I also save all my scraps and just made two string quilts with backings from the stash. I buy a roll of batting at Hancock's of Paducah and that lasts about 18 months.

so I will NEVER EVER EVER stop quilting. I couldn't even if I tried...And, I will continue to buy fabric. It's sort of like retail therapy raised a few degrees!
