Absolutely, you are an addict!! Isn't it fun :wink: :P :wink: :-P :lol: :-P :lol:

I agree, the first dress I made was from a feedsack...I still remember how excited I was!

I prefer to call it a Fabric Collector. Yes I have some well aged Fabric in my large stash. I feel it is like fine wine. It must age before I use it. Unless it is bought for an immediate project. Kinda like buying wine for a party or the holidays. I state a stamp collector is not expected to use their stamps, so why is a quilter expected to use their stash!

I think you have joined the club!

All those colors, textures, smells, etc. I love seeing it spread out, I love seeing it cut into stacks, or rolled into jelly rolls, I love seeing it folded into neat little piles, or even the scrap heap that collects from cuttings. I love the feel of a quilt top, and can not help but admire the way it all comes together. (not to mention the desire to purchase every piece of fabric I see for sale on here, sucks to be broke) Am I a fabric addict? Of course, like most of us.....you are a fabric addict! You ARE VERY LUCKY to be broke! If you weren't, you'd end up with an ENDLESS stash like me. If I were to use all the fabric that I 'fell in love' with, it would make over a thousand great quilts! How on earth am I ever going to quilt fast enough to use up all this fabric......or maybe I could just become an addicted fabric fondler!! Hummm, I wonder....so they have a FABRIC FONDLER'S website? |

yep! :thumbup:

Told hubby that if I should bite the big one anytime soon, for heaven's sake don't take the totes of fabric to the landfill. There could be BIG $$ for him from the fabric if he took the time to ebay it

I seem to have a problem of turning down a good fabric buy
