One rule could be that if you have to hide the fabric from the spouse when you bring it in the house, you have too big of a stash! (or a cheap spouse)

LMAO!!!!! Been there - done that!!!! Oh, Hun I've had that for awhile - while the totes are overflowing!!! Love fabric, need fabric. Although I'm getting a little pickier now as to what I'm buying.

Just enjoy!!!! :thumbup:

Welcome from New Hamsphire! I love fabrics, too. But I like to think of it as fueling my creativity, rather than an obsession. LOL.

I think I definitly have to agree, if this truly is an "addiction" I want NO part of a cure! I have pulled out so many UFOs to begin finishing them (I am days away from finishing the first quilt I ever pieced!). I used to crochet baby blankets for friends and loved ones who were pregnant, but it always frustrated me that it took so long to begin looking like a blanket and not a pale pink scarf! Now that I've returned to what must be my true love, I can't wait to find out what my bf is having: boy or girl? She finds out in July. I already have the pattern selected!

I will have to admit that I am "trying" to control the spending, because I made dh swear off of buying new video games until he had beaten the ones he had. So it's not entirely fair if he can't while I continue to. Of course, his video games reap no tangible reward or finished product.....

My husband protection plan is to tell him that my mom bought it for me. When he thinks it didn't cost him anything then he is okay with it. Needless to say, my mom has "paid" for a lot of stuff!! :-D :-D :-D
