Question - a true quilter?
 

I have finally gotten my sewing area organized, well as organized as it is going to get. Have decided to start gathering items needed for several classes I have signed up for this year so I can order all the new rulers, templates, or what not's I will need for the classes. Do not need to order anything! Have doubles of almost all, some triple. Most are still in there original packaging. Even have all fabric needed in my stash! Does this mean I am a true quilter, or does it just mean I have bought way to much in the past?? LOL

Hee hee, did you answer your own question? :D

Sounds like a true quilter to me! :)

Aren't they one and the same??!! lol

Have you seen anyone about the possibility you may be an OCQ (Obsessive-Compulsive Quilter)? It sounds like a very serious problem and the only thing I could think to recommend is ... more quilting!!! (or more cow bell, one of the two) ;)

OCQ -- I finally have a name for my condition!

Love the name of my OCQ.

I suppose we all have a measure of this condition-I know I do. But, I am dismayed when I purchase something, ruler or gadget, that is a one use thing and costs quite a bit. We can be drawn in so easily-especially at a quilt show demonstration. I want to be well equipped but not overly so. My weakness seems to be books and I have more than I need.

I never feel guilty or bad about notion purchases I've made for quilting. Really nothing cost that much no matter if it is a one time use or not. Notions wear out and break so it's money saving to have a spare bought at yesterday prices.

You sound like a true Quilter to me , I know I planned my new kitchen around a very large breakfast bar
that had to be able to take a K/S quilt so when I basted it, I don't have to get down on my knees any more
the kitchen designer thought I had lost it , he couldn't understand someone planning a kitchen around sewing .
Silly man ........
