LOL. :lol: Been there; done that. But at least I have them all in 1 place now. :lol:
|
mmmhmmm....been there done that. Told myself I would just buy fabric for the quilt backs. That lasted oh a day?
|
Love organzing fabric, it's my love! I do work down my stash every year, and it keeps coming in the back door somehow and multiplying. Oh well!
|
Good luck with THAT plan:) Tried it and it doesn't work. It's much like dieting!
|
I am taking the 5th on this.

I have cardboard bolt boards full of fabric for complete quilts, binding and backing that number well over 40.......I also have a room full of stash including jelly rolls, layers cakes, etc., and don't feel guilty about it at all. It's my vice, but it keeps me happy and my quilting group ladies will inherit it and my numerous machines when I'm gone. None of my family members are interested in it, and my quilting girls can't wait for me to kick the bucket...............not true, they love me! I feel it's my way of compensating for many, many years of "family first".

I have taken it upon myself to buy the collection Oasis. One yard at a time. I'm up to 10 yeards. I don't have a pattern, just love the colors. But I am going to the NQA show in Columbus, Ohio next week. I'm going to try to be real good. I hope.

I intend to use as much of it as possible and when it no longer brings me pleasure or I can't stitch any longer, my daughters have been instructed to share it with those who love fabric too.

I have 7 LQS within 12 miles of my house. I also have a JoAnns and Hancocks and 3 Hobby Lobby in that radius. I drive pat 2 LQS and Hancocks and Jo Anns andHobby Lobby on my way home from work every day. So dangerous. I have tried banning myself from them. It isn't going too well. I purchased fabric for a mystery quilt last week.

Yes, I am a fabraholic and I don't want a cure.
