I feel your pain! I have so many magazines/books and patterns also. I always think I'm going to make that pattern next, and even start collecting fabric, then....boom....next must do comes along, new pattern or book/magazine, and the cycle starts again. My current plan was finish the quilt I'm working on, (sandwich and quilt) and start the bargello I have all the fabric ready to go for. However, new pattern came along, and I've veered off, full speed ahead, into the direction of a Rainbow Lonestar. My piles don't seem to shrink either.
