Yesterday I spent over an hour looking for a pattern that I knew would be perfect for some fabric I had. I looked all over this board, I looked all over the quilters blog that I just knew it had to be on. Then it hit me. It was in a magazine I had just looked in. There is just too much stuff and not enough storage in my brain!!!!!

You're right - too much stuff and not enough time!

cakebaker 01-29-2011 04:38 PM

I totally agree spend more time looking than sewing.

Girlfriend, I hate to tell you the sad news. I know that you are a young lady and the bad news is that it just keeps getting worse the older you get. :roll: :roll: :roll:

Quiltforme 01-29-2011 06:46 PM

"I here you", I cannot get anything done, I spend too much time looking for new patterns and new ideas.... maybe I should just go back to all of my printed patterns I keep in a 3 ring binder and look through those again, after all, I must have printed them because I really liked them, I aso have tons of books and magazines.
