    You think that is being bad, well let me tell you a story with no ending. In the tutorial section there is a lady from Alaska that did her sewing room with bookcase across the wall, well that sounded like a pretty good idea because my fabric has been in file cabinets and I can't see what I have soooooooo I bought some bookcases and started my journey. I went toevey store and got cardboard, went to Starbucks and filled my van with boxes and got started, well a month later I have finished but I opened a trunk big enough to put a body in and guess what more fabric. Now you understand why I am covered in fabric.

    You know you could probably give the funeral director advance notice to wrap you in fabric strips like a mummy when the time comes. That will probably be the best solution for most of us.

    I suggested to my mother in law that if she ever stops quilting, that I get all her fabrics, and quilting notions! I mean she has enough for a store! She loves me so much that she has said yes, as I am her favorite daughter in law! ( her ONLY daughter in law, however her favorite)

    Ha - I think you are in denial - maybe it is a Texas thing as I live in Benbrook, TX. And I don't have a problem because when my money is gone - sometimes I quit buying fabric - see, I can control it.

    O.K. now I am going to tell tales out of school but one of the gals I quilt with not only has a room full but also has two storage trailers outside of her house full and still keeps on buying more when we meet because we meet in a quilt shop and so far I have not seen her finish a thing so I guess she wins the prize. We are sick,sick,sickkkkkkkk.
