Give your DH a cold beer and the remote,or send him to the golf course, or wherever he would be happy. Then go directly to your sewing machine and sew, sew, sew..... We all are addicted and probably need an intervention, but oh well.....

Seems fairly normal behavior from where I'm sitting!!!

I had already determined, as I was drifting off to sleep, that I really did want that front pocket on my tote - and yet the tote was complete - but I was determined there was a way to add that pocket anyway!!! And there was. I'll have to upload a picture in the pictures section. :-)

What a great tee shirt!!! Quilting to me is something that is enjoyable and productive; also, it has been a stress reliever.........and a heck of lot cheaper than a therapist.

Got hooked this February making a Valentine wall hanging at my church, and have since made 3 full size quilts, a baby quilt and a table runner. Last night, I finished the top of a Dresden plate quilt. Guess I would say I'm in that same boat with y'all -- and happy to be there! lol
