with my fabric addiction? I thought I had all my stash organized perfectly where I knew where everything was...nope!!!! I gave up and just started stacking fabric in my laundry basket (emptying the dirty laundry on the floor!) AND, I've only been on this Board for less than a year!!!!!

My sister and nieces (18 and 21 years) came over this week. We were working on decorating my youngest niece's linens for her apt (she'll be a Freshman in college in Sept). She brought me a simple solid throw pillow in a pretty aqua and wanted it do an applique on it. They were going to Hancock's and I said "WAIT" I went into my sewing room and starting looking thru containers. They followed me. After I opened about 4 boxes I pulled out 5 pieces that looked great with the pillow!! My sister looked around and said "WHERE DID YOU GET ALL THIS FABRIC?" Well, I kinda just said"oh, I'd been collecting here and there.....(hehe) and I am going to make some quilts". Luckily, I didn't get a lecture...she said "oh, I want to come quilt with you"...

So since she's a nurse, can I do my rehab as an outpatient?????

Sounds like she's also going to get addicted maybe LOL
When my sister saw my fabric she was astonished- same question as your sister! :D:D
My sister doesn't sew and I had to explain to her how we need to have a stash hahaha

Oh, I thought I was in rehab when I was playing with my fabric, cutting it into squares and placeing it in little stacks.

Since we are a bunch of enablers, probably the best advice you could get to "kick the habit" would be a restriction on reading this board! ;)

Just don't look in my sewing room!

You got it, fabric and sewing machines are addictive on this site.

I would like to add rulers, rotary tools, irons and ironing boards. :thumbup:

That's so funny! Just think of all the wonderful fabric stores you will have to visit with your sister so you can show her how you lost your way.

I think you may have gotten your sister drugged also. It works fast.
