Is it just me, or do others spend more time reading on here than actually quilting/ sewing? I am on here at least 3 times a day, spending a few hours in the morning "catching up on the latest"! I can't get anything else done..perhaps I should ground myself? No, then I might miss something wonderful that I need to add to my to-do list. Woe is me..hehe

Just thought I would see if I am the only addict :)

You are definetly NOT alone!

Stitchnripper 06-26-2011 04:39 AM

Same here. I love to quilt but there are periods of time when I just think about it and not do it. I love the inspiration, sharing and advice on this board.

ChrisB 06-26-2011 04:40 AM

Totally addicted. My iPhone does not help me at all because regardless of where I am I can check the board and see what's going on. I can check the board while pumping gas, now how sad is that? LOL!

When I first joined I was on most of the day! Between the Board and working on my garden I got little else done. I am finally back to actually quilting so spend a bit less time on here - trying to use it as a reward for actually doing something.

sharone 06-26-2011 05:11 AM

It's my daily fix!

DebQuilter50 06-26-2011 05:15 AM

Addicted to QB - I can admit it!

Opal Jane 06-26-2011 05:16 AM

I am addicted and have only been a member since May and I never thought I would become addicted. This morning after I cleaned up the breakfast dishes...I said to my husband, let me go see what's going on with the girls. I am on here more than I quilt but that is OK....I am so glad I joined!!

charlotte625 06-26-2011 05:24 AM

No, I am not addicted! No, I am not addicted!....well that didn't cahnge a thing .............yes I love reading every board, looking at the pictures of quilts, or fabric they find in thrift stores, or old sewing machines......I haven't been here but a few months myself.....love it

SueDor 06-26-2011 05:32 AM

I love this board. I have made a point to check on it in the morning and most times in the evening. Try not to go it more than that unless I am waiting for an answer.

QUILTNMO 06-26-2011 05:35 AM

love coming here normally when i take breaks

ontheriver 06-26-2011 05:46 AM

I do spend a lot of time here but I figured out a system that works for me. First my desk and computer is in my sewing room. I work on my projects and when ever it is time for a break away from the machine I get up, stretch, and go to computer, read for a while, then go back to my sewing. I may seem like I am on here all day, but actually its only 5 or 10 min. at a time, several times a day.

leaha 06-26-2011 09:08 AM

first thing I do in the morning!!!!!! and some times it is late afternoon before I am done LOL

BeckyB 06-26-2011 09:09 AM

GUILTY!

DogHouseMom 06-26-2011 09:10 AM

Not alone. I smoke and I don't smoke or bring food/drink into the sewing room, so whenever I need a break I pop into the office for a few.

Jennifer22206 06-26-2011 09:15 AM

I love the board. I check it all the time from my Droid. And computer.

BarbaraSue 06-26-2011 09:19 AM

I'm with charlotte 625-- I am not addicted... I am NOT addicted.... I AM NOT addicted... Well, I'm still addicted.

MisDixie 06-26-2011 09:22 AM

Guilty! Addicted and not looking for a 12 step program any time soon!

Susie Quilter 06-26-2011 12:47 PM

I am so GUILTY......I keep telling myself that I MUST get off here......hmmmmmm.....I'm still here and loving every minute of it.

normasews 06-26-2011 01:26 PM

Count me in. Too much fun stuff to read!

dixiebelle162002 06-26-2011 01:31 PM

Let's not talk about the amount of time I spend on here :oops: :oops:

QuiltingJaguar 06-26-2011 01:35 PM

I look forward to reading all the messages from everyone, strange questions you were afraid to ask. Since I live alone, with a zoo I feel like I am talking with others on and off all day. Clutter is taking over the house, but have to confess, Casey Anthony trial is really first at the minute, being near that area we who live in FL have to find out will they or won't they find her guilty??? Dummm

KwiltyKahy 06-26-2011 01:36 PM

Addicted? Who me?!?

I spend more time than I probably should. If I just don't go into the puter room, I do much better at getting things done.

Oh girl!!!! You need the 10 step program!!! :thumbup:

AliceQ 06-27-2011 03:40 AM

I've been here for about 2 1/2 years, mostly just taking in all this awesome knowledge! But I have started posting now and again. Getting absolutely HOOKED on vintage sewing machines! I want to post some pics of my quilts soon too. But YES I'm addicted! I can pass 2 hours here and swear I had JUST SAT DOWN!

kimscruzer 06-27-2011 04:02 AM

Yes I am ! :roll:

noveltyjunkie 06-27-2011 04:15 AM

Guilty? Sorry, don't understand that word.....

Scakes 06-27-2011 04:25 AM

:lol:

Just Me... 06-27-2011 04:37 AM

I check in the mornings with my coffee, then I make myself power the entire computer down. Otherwise, I spend way too much time on the puter and I'm not getting my chores done! Guess you could say I am on a computer DIET! :)

carolynbb 06-27-2011 04:42 AM

There are a lot of us that spend a lot of time on here! I don't think we should feel too bad about it - there are so many worse things we could be doing!! That's my story and I'm stickin to it.

Dotsie 06-27-2011 04:49 AM

I dont need any sleep pills, this is my outcome well spent.

psychonurse 06-27-2011 05:03 AM

Guilty. I love talking to my imaginary friends on here.

jolo 06-27-2011 05:08 AM

Now what could possibly be addicting about this board that I am on most of the time from six thirty tilllllllll /That is my statement and Im sticking to it. Jo
