Yes, (sigh) I am truly a fabricholic of the worst kind.
Maybe you should wait til after the service, if you go before you might not make it. Reason is a quilter doesn't know how to make a quick stop at a fabric shop.

I am a fabricolic and so is my DH. He told me about some fabric on Craigslist that didn't have a phone #. He told me he would have gotten for me but didn't know how to post back to them. Not that's an enabler :lol:

So far I am controlling my urge to buy, buy, buy. I had to accumulate the accesories just to start quilting. I have about all I really need of that now. I buy material for a project and maybe a couple small pieces I like. But I am just worried of getting too much material at the moment. It would overwhelm me and I would need to start too many projects and I wish only two to three at a time going! lol that is my dilemma

As long as we are in a confessional mood, have any of you spent money on fabric that you absolutly should not have, like bill money? I have, but even fabric isn't worth the feeling I had after. I felt so guilty. My name is Honey and I am a fabrihaulic!!

Sorry, but I think this is incurable and all you can do is try to moderate it. However I don't think that is even possible, lol!
