It's an Addiction, Really

The beautiful curse of the sewer/quilter is the need to always add to their stash. I'm convinced it really is a disease that has plagued me and I'm calling it Stash-i-tous. And ya know what? I hope a cure is never found.

Here are the Top 6 Symptoms that you might have this amazing illness:

1. Hearing the words Fat Quarter makes you salivate.
2. You buy fabric on impulse with no plan of how you're going to use it.
3. You never walk out of a fabric store empty-handed.
4. You spend hours staring at or reorganizing your stash, just to remind you of the beauty you own.
5. You find it hard to use your fabric out of fear that you might "spoil" your stash.
6. You've had to include a "fabric fund" in your monthly budget. ("Amen to that!" says my Hubby)
   

I recently fed this addiction this past weekend. At Clementine's I bought 2 fat quarters of Jay McCarroll fabric: Garden Friends and Woodland Wonderland. I don't have anything like it in my stash, so I thought, what the heck? I might as well indulge.


And I found this incredibly fun summer time print called "Juicy" by Alexander Henry at Joann Fabrics.


P.S. I'm thinking about opening an Etsy Shop and selling some of my paintings, prints, & fun sewing projects. What chy'all think about that? Should I do it?
