Quilting in general is my weakness.
You go to the shop with an idea in mind, and a list of things to buy, but... this is on sale... ooo there's a new gadget... look at the fabric, it's pretty, let me buy a yard...
And before you know it, you've blown your budget and have to take out a second mortgage on the house to support the addiction.
To handle the addiction, I literally wrestle myself out the door.
Someone needs to start QA (Quilter's Anonymous).

Fabric....if I don't have a project in mind I'll buy 1/2 yard. That way it can easily be made into fat qtrs for swaps and takes care of my fabric fix. I could buy 1 yard of 1 fabric, but buying two 1/2 yards seems like so much more. lol

I think mine is magazines. I keep telling myself I don't need anymore cause I have plenty of ideas from the ones I already have. Add to that all the patterns I've downloaded from the internet. . . you get the idea. But I can't seem to resist "just taking a look" when I'm in the store. Another problem is that I can't seem to bring myself to get rid of any old mags. So I'm getting quite a stack! I tend to pick one up to read on the plane when I take a trip. Another trip scheduled the end of the month so I'll probably add another to the collection!
