Help! I think I need an intervention!

Good Lord! If there's a cure, I'd like to know what it is! My house looks more like a quilt shop than anything else, and I continue to buy more. My head knows it's ridiculous, but my heart has absolutely no control. Apparently, my heart has the checkbook.

Oh my gosh!! LOL, LOL, LOL!!! I've told myself I am going to have to self-impose a ban on all internet sites having to do with quilting (or ebay or Craig's List).
In talking with my daughter last night, telling her about my 3 "new" vintage machines - she asked me why I needed 3 machines. I said, well to sew on all 3 at once of course!!! Apparently I was unable to sufficiently explain the draw these vintage machines have. She looked at me, shook her head and said, "Mom, I think you've crossed over to the dark side!!"

I am right there with you. This week I am in Atlanta visiting my daughter. A dear friend of mine lives here, and she is looking for a sewing machine. I made the mistake of going with her one day to look at "sewing machines". I walked out of the first shop $225.00 lighter( $100 of it was for Designer's Gallery Studio Plus for my embroidery machines though). Next we stopped at JoAnne's and I spent another $45.00. That evening we went to Hobby Lobby (my first trip there) and lightened my wallet by another $65. And my friend STILL hasn't bought a new machine. I am NOT going out machine shopping with her again.
