"my name is marilyn, and i'm a fabriholic..."

yes. i go and pet the bolts. i love to roam through the home decor fabrics and touch the different types, weights, kinds...chenille, brocades, sheers, silks, etc. i know that i have a "different" feeling about some of it--my daughter and i have a measure of "synesthesia"--we "taste" the colors in things. green has a different "flavor" than red, purple is different than blue. (and chartreuse and "hot" greens taste like hot metal smells...) lucky for me, i do have a friend who makes renaissance clothing (for a living, even!) and i get lots of scraps from him to "play" with. (lovely patchwork quilts--heavy, warm!)

yep. time for another fix, i think...
