Make it Stop....
 
I'm a junkie and my crack is fabric! Yes, I just purchased MORE fabric. This time from www.fabric.com. I can't help myself! I LOVE a sale! And pretty fabric...the touch, the feel. VERY RARELY will I pay full price for anything. Wait! OMG! I am patient! Who knew? :thumbup:

Join the club. We're all the same here. Hello, my name is Karen and I'm an addict......

My name is Julie and I am an addict...however made a pledge for 2013 NOT to buy more fabric. Need to sew more and shop less. So now sewing for charities and friends at work. Still playing with fabric and wallet is full. Win win situation for me.

Ditto. I just purchased fabric from them also. Why pay $11/yd when you can get it for 6-something. I even purchased their 3 lbs. of fabric....I love scrappy quilts...however, when you buy this box it's like getting a mystery box, lottery ticket, surprise. I think that anticipation gives me a high. (Sigh) There are worse addictions, I tell myself!

SmickChick, I love there 3 lbs mystery box too. It gives my stash fabrics I would not normally buy and I love the new challenge of using them. Yes, quilting is an addiction and I don't want a cure:)

Hmmm will have to check out the mystery box

Letty 01-25-2013 10:19 AM

There there-- we have all had the same experience, trouble is there is no cure!

Grama Lehr 01-25-2013 10:21 AM

Is that a BAD THING?? :D

MaryMo 01-25-2013 10:24 AM

I love fabric ... the smell of it, the feel of it; it even talks to me. So am I an addict too?

I looked all over the site and could not find the 3lb box of fabric, could someone let me know where on the site it is under...thank you ☺

OMG - ok I admit - My screen name is Otis and I too am a fabric addict. My fabric drug of choice is Moda Pre-cuts - I cannot get enough of them and spend many hours searching for the best deals - I cannot stop myself - all I can say is I have slowed down a little on my impulses....Sigh...

Boy, did you come to the wrong place for help! We are all enablers, as well as addicts ourselves! We will even tell you where the good sales are! I figure that I don't drink, I don't gamble, I don't smoke, so everybody has to have one vice. Mine is fabric hoarding. I love it. My name is Sandy and I am addicted and don't want to be cured!

KwiltyKahy 01-25-2013 03:17 PM

I'm and addict and I don't want to be cured either. Too much fun like this. There are worse things.

Scakes 01-26-2013 03:49 AM

Looks like we are all in the same boat. Isn't it grand? I really fabric.com but I've never tried the 3 lb box. Dont know if I should go look at them or not. LOL.

My name is Judy and I am an addict, too. I have been known to check out clearance corners in LQSs, thrift stores, garage asales to get a fix! :D:D:shock:

crazy cat lady 01-26-2013 07:28 PM

My name is L. & I'm a fabric addict. Tried to tell myself no more fabric, but those sneaky estate sales & GW got me!

skaduzy 01-26-2013 08:15 PM

My name is Suzanne and I'm a fabric addict, too. I keep fabric in my car until my husband is working in the basement and then bring it in and hide it in a closet.

craftygal63 01-28-2013 06:33 PM
