I started sewing as a child. No one warned me how addictive it was. They openly sold me, a child, fabric. Why my parents would even send me with a note to buy it. I had to hide my stash so my parents wouldn't find it. I nearly had to flush it once cause my mom came home early. I'm glad she forgot to lock the car, when she went back out, I had time to hide the evidence. I have been addicted so long now, I am without hope.
Pray for me. ROFLMAO!

My name is Janet and I'm a quiltoholic.. though I just started back up in the last few months after a 10 yr hiatus I've got it bad.

I just started on a new project last week and I spent Friday night till 2 am... all day yesterday..took a break to watch a movie and started back in and was again up till 2 am. Worked most of the day today... and it's almost 9 pm and I'm still going. I have to go to work tomorrow... hmmm... maybe I'll call in sick. As I said... I've got it bad.

My name is Diane, and I'm a quiltaholic, big-time. Besides that, if it weren't enough, I'm a major fabriholic. Do you suppose it's a tactile deficiency from my childhood or something? <G>

My name is Twinkie. And, I am a fabriholic. I have searched and searched for a cure to no avail. Someone told me if I would learn how to quilt, it would releave the drive to buy fabric. THEY LIED!! Now I am a fabriholic and a quiltiholic.

What is a person to do? I just have one question. Is it terminal??

This is just too funny! I finally came out of the closet and had a cabinet built along one wall of my "office" (erstwhile bedroom) -12' long x 8' tall x 15" deep, and it's almost filled up already. You wouldn't believe where I keep finding fabric to transfer there - I amaze myself! I had even used rolls of batting to fill pillow shams on my guestroom bed, because I didn't have pillows long enough! That's a secret, though, so please don't tell anyone! :lol:

At this point, repentence is completely out of the question.
