Yes, it is addicting, I stopped by the fabric store Monday to get a package of needles, they didn't have what I wanted, but I bought 5 different kinds of material instead :)........oh my, I had better buy some needles tomorrow :)

No, no, no. Whatever gave you that idea? I have no addiction. I can walk right by fabric and never even glance at it.
(Yea RIGHT~ That explains why I went into two different stores today - one a LQS and the other JoAnne's - and walked out with fabric. AND why I've ordered fabric from a friend of a friend who is selling her $10K stock of the store she used to own - killer deals with her!
De-nile is a river in Egypt! :D L0L)

yeah, i have an addictive personality :( I told myself i have enough stash and wasnt going to buy anything else until i used most of it and what did i do? bought more. Its too tempting! As you said, so many nice fabrics. To my own defense i have used some of my stash fabric, but what i bought just brought the pile up to the same amount again!

Fabric Addiction goes beyond just wanting to buy fabric. There is the issue of "if I use it then I won't have it any more." So if I use any of my fabric then I am on the mission of making sure I get more of that same fabric so I still have it. I have bought approximately 16 different fabrics in the last week. It is madness. When someone asked me to make them something, I invite them to my stash and they are shocked at the amount of fabric I have. We all need help so don't feel alone.

I always go thru my stash. I very seldom have to go purchase anything which of course would lead to more stash. My biggest problem is JoAnn's coupons. If I have one I have to use it. Can't pass up 50% off. And if your getting 50% off fabric you might as will get twice as much.... and on, and on, and......
