Being new to quilting I have invested more money in this hobby than I should have...but love buying fabric at the LQS, Joann's, on -line even when I don't have a project in mind! I'm ashamed of what I've added to my credit cards. Hope I can make all these fabrics match/blend to make some more quilts! And, I have too many UFOs already...need to get FMQ practice in so I can finish them.

I am ashamed to admit that I look at this board at work. I should be working.

Just sometimes? LOL....daily routine here. House will still need work but the quilts come first!

I realize that there are people in my house who are hungry and I tell them it's a YOYO night. You're on your own.

I am the same way once I get to a certain point in a project where I know what the out come is going to be .. I loose interest. I had to start getting more inventive with borders to hold my interest. I am so thankful for Long arm pro's.
It so bad that I thought I would have fun with EQ 7... I hate it it took most of the suspense out of the project. It was not nearly as much fun making a quilt when I knew exactly what it was going to look like.
So I 'll play with EQ but the quilts I create on EQ never get made.
