    Hello, my name is Sherri and I share the same problem as Jan. I go to bed at night thinking about the blocks and quilts I want to make. And dream of yards and yards of flowing, cotton fabric!!!

    Sometimes I get so excited before I walk into a quilt store never knowing what new stuff I will find when I go through the door!

    The book is called Prayers for Sale. It's a paperback I got at our library. I'm barely into it so don't know whether it's going to be a keeper or not, but the remarks on quilting have been interesting.

    I have read remarks on here about fondling fabric and thought ... yeah, right! But my latest project is a Moda fabric called Cold Winter Noses. It's a panel and I have fat quarters to make the blocks around it. That fabric just feels good and nicely starched ..... wow.... ah......

    As I was piecing it I found myself petting and stroking it. And you all say this is normal!?

    Uh oh...I've passed that point! I utilize the lunchroom table to cut my quilt pieces out...and to pin the blocks together...and whatever else I need a big table for!

    Anyone else do this?

    Oh Jan, - you have become one of us! I also sneak peeks at work and check out websites for new patterns. I don't feel guilty too often!
