I'm on your page! I've been retired for almost 2 years. Before I retired, my husband custom built my sewing room. It is amazing and pretty too! I have everything I need until something else pops up. I bought a new machine and a longarm before I retired - that was a great decision. I actually have a monthly budget for my quilting needs. I put that in place myself and maybe I should have done that awhile ago. That being said, if it looks like I need it, want it and can figure out how to get it (without going into debt or paying finance charges) its probably going to happen! So yes Spoiled Quilter it is or better yet, as Tartan says "you have your priorities straight" and I agree with that!
