Same issue with me. No more room, but the desire for new is strong. This forum has a moitorium post..not buying fab for a year! I joined and so far for two weeks been good. Just like going on a diet. Planning a move in spring and really need to get rid of stuff.

I really need to reorganize my stash so I know what I have. All in containers but several are messed up so to say.

Bella Boo, I love ALL of the DH's comments. I would love to hear from others. Mine doesn't say anything about my fabric shopping. Eiltcoq.

I am starting to scare myself. Any advise on how to stop being so compulsive?????????
You bought it....

I am so glad I'm not the only one with this problem. :lol: There are only 2 quilt stores near me, and a Joanne's about 35 miles away, but with winter here and snow on the ground, I don't get out as much to buy more fabric. Of course, there are other avenues to fall back on. A couple of weeks ago I did reorganize my fabric as Brenda suggested, and I must admit, it let me see just how much fabric I do have. My DH is a real trooper though. When he sees more fabric coming through the front door he just grins at me and shakes his head. So, with him in mind, I've taken a vow not to buy more fabric. (Does that mean I can buy a new purse instead??) :lol:

I have had days like that too. If I don't have money I can throw around I just delete the emails and get on with it. I know I really don't need anything usually. I was about to order this week when I opened another email and found out the toy fund from the town I am from (Pineville, West Virginia) had been robbed of all their toys so I sent the money to them instead. It's a struggle not to click on all those emails.
