    Red face I am not a Fabric Hoarder, I am a Fabric Collector Gone Awry

    I can't find the A Year to Crow About panel I started cutting up last month. So, I'm having a fit about how I have become a fabric hoarder so out of control that I can't find what I know I own. My sweet husband stopped me and said, "Honey, you are not a hoarder, you are a fabric collector gone awry." Now for a few deep breathes and back to the search.

    He also commented that I have a few other projects I could also work on while the panel works its way back to the top of a pile.

    I've got to remember this phrase, because I've definitely gone awry too.

    I always find what I've been missing by cleaning house. And I usually find some other items I've forgotten were missing, lol!

    It sounds like you have a great hubby who understands you and your passion for quilting. Stop searching for it and then you'll find it
