I knew I had ADD - now I know it's a very common condition among quilters. One thing always leads to another. By the time I get through checking out everything on the way to looking for something, I've forgotten what I'm looking for!

I don't know why we call it a cutting table. Mine has so much stuff piled on it, all I could cut out would be to cut a charm square in half! I think it should be called a collection table!

Quilter's ADD is something many of us suffer from. Your story sounds so familiar. Fabric can be so distracting.

We have a quilter's garage sale with our church quilt group, so I go through most of my stuff every year and see what I can sell. We have so much fun and when I see things in my room for the third year, its time to think about a new home for it.

It's a major problem. I'm trying to go through my stuff...had to just put things in piles "to get to" or else I'll never get the room done. Right now I've got boxes of craft stuff in my bedroom (DH isn't home til Sat.) and I must get them organized by Sat. Takes a while when we keep getting sidetracked.

If I cleaned by sewing room, I wouldn't be able to find anything.
