Maybe we need a topic for 'fabric anomynous' discussions :-) .... I broke down and bought some fabric online this week just because it was a supergood sale and I had a coupon :( .. I am sure it will sit for a long time waiting for me to figure out what to do with it. Sad is that I have a credit card bill to pay off - I think I will commit to not purchase anything unless it's needed to finish a quilt until that bill is paid ... does my confession help you feel not so alone in your fabric indulgence? I think since you've not purchased for a while, it's ok that you got out. Maybe next time limit your spending??

And on top of that I even spent a fortune on fabrics for quilts. The fabrics cost a fortune over here, but I just had to have them...

BUT I reasoned with myself that since my daughter is a Sunday school teacher, she may be able to use the ribbons etc...

I may as well come out and tell you all that I just put all the stuff in my sewing room and then locked it and I have not been in there for a day..... I know I should not have spent the money but I did... I don't know what came over me...

Sad part is that one of sayings is" Do you need it? or do you want it?" this time I thought I needed it...... :O(

What a sad story. I am quite ashamed of what I have just written.... but I shall just press "send" and voila all my troubles will be solved!!! :O)
