Hello, my name is Glenda and I am a fabriholic already and want to be a quiltaholic. I've been following this board for about three weeks now and finally made a post two days ago. You ladies are so talented! I want to jump into quilting but I am scared...isn't that crazy. I've made like three quilt tops and that is as far as I can get. I have quilt fabric and kits up to my eyeballs and I can look at quilt patterns for hours, have downloaded dozens...and nothing. I think I need an enabler!?!

My name is Sue and I'm a 'fabricoholic' more so than a quilter. But I will come to quilters anonymous meetings!

warm quilt hugs, sue in CA

It has been 2 weeks since I last worked on piecing a quilt....ONLY because my machine is in the shop! :)
Otherwise I'd be in there right now - sewing away!

I am a quiltaholic and I haven't worked with fabric since July20th when I had thumb joint replacement cast coming off on Thursday and then therapy. Hoping to be back quilting soon.

"Enablers" ....that's the word I've been looking for. If if weren't for all of you putting pictures of your quilts, projects and sewing rooms on this board, maybe I could finish some of my quilts. I agree: it's all your fault!!! :-))

My name is Betty Ditto I agree with every thing that you have just said, and I have been doing all of this since 1973 so I guess I have earned my pin by now and I am not going to guit any time soon.

My name is Pat and I am a quitaholic with a collecting problem. And I couldn't be with a better group of people.

If those evil quilt shops would not send me those enticing sales and pictures of new fabric, I think I could get better.

Yes that's me, a quiltoholic. I need something to enable me to finish one before starting another. It seems the only ones getting finished these days are gifts with time limits, like births or BD's

Hi, I'm Bev & I'm not a quiltaholic! I do NOT have 3 or 4 UFOs. I do NOT have 2 WIPs. I do NOT have 200 or 300 ideas. I do NOT have fabric all over my house. I do NOT have boxes of fabric in storage & my DD did not put it there. I do NOT have 5 sewing machines ( OK only 3 'cause I gave 2 to DD.) And if I do I don't want a cure.
