I hope it isn't terminal! :lol: ....because I've got it bad! Especially anything larger than a throw because it doesn't take long for my creative mind to wander. I'm down to fabrics that don't coordinate or are just plain "uggs" in my stash. That need to make a trip to the fabric store for new fabric for new projects helps keep me on task.

I have all of the first group. Sigh! Currently have 5 quilt tops to quilt and keep cutting out new ones to start. I also have a long arm and truly that is my favorite part, but I still see new patterns or new fabric collections I have to have and then spend an inordinate amount of time planning which pattern to go with which fabric. And, I am not retired yet. I wake in the middle of the night planning a project. This has got to stop.

It is habit forming.
Have several projects started but when I get on the computer with this group everything stops :-)

I am a sufferer as well. Isn't there some sort of 12 step program for us?
