Want to share your 'aholics'

[dramaw]

Hello, my name is Linda, and I am a scissoraholic....Hello my name is Linda and I am a fabricaholic...Hello my name is Linda and I am a designaholic...Oh my goodness my 'aholicness could go on and on when it comes to machine embroidery...How about you...

What is the one thing that you purchase the most of for your embroidery craft.:cool:

[Sew So Happy]

I have found myself buying a lot of fabric for that what if moment. I think once I get "the sewing room" down in the basement, it might be scissors. I do buy a lot of designs, too. I also try to use them, too.

[JenZ]

haha, I have a sewing room, my husband has a zen-like "study" (the cats and I are not allowed in that room we will mess it up) then we have an office with the computer and filing cabinet, and then we have the normal rooms in a house....of course we have no kids...haha
I am a fabric and patternaholic....now if only I could find the time to introduce them all to each other....hmmm

[mdquilter]

Well first and foremost I'm a Quiltaholic (I have been quilting for 15 years now).....but I'm also a fabricaholic and threadaholic.....I'm also quickly becoming a sewing machineaholic (even my back up machines have backup machines LOL - my 3 most used machines are my Janome 6600 for piecing, my Brother PE700 for embroidery and my HQ16 frame system for machine quilting)

[Snyder.crafting]

Oh Boy! I really don't want to admit to all of this. I am Jen and I am a:
Knit, yarn, embrioder, sew, fabric, quilt, cross stitch, bead, craft, stash, etc. - aholic. I am sure I missed something. :o

[dana]

Since having children, I think I collect dust bunnies more than anything else. ;)

I buy fabric with ideas in mind, and designs- designs - designs... I keep looking for any blanks that are on sale too. I get things for the "just in case". Embroidery supply sales are my big aholic issue ( threads, stabilizers, blanks)

I could probably go on and on-

[dramaw]

I buy so much fabric,,,especially with Walmarts down sizing their fabric department, I buy every time I enter the store...It's like a magnet drawing me to the fabric dept...And then when I read posts about notions that people use and think are wonderful,,I have to have that also...Thread, oh my goodness I have just about every brand and my machines love all of them...but I never have the exact color I need for a project so have to purchase more...then all the software programs to resize, upsize, downsize, etc.,,,,when does it stop???LOL But, it keeps me sane and that's about the only thing I spend money on...when I think about it that's why I can't spend money on anything else, it all goes to my addiction...LOL

You are too funny! I feel your pain- of never having the right color of thread. I am glad to know that I can share this thread with my hubby, and he can then see I am not the only one out there like this! Great response!!!:D

[sew blessed]

I want bjoyed's house. I cannot imagine being able to have that many rooms!lol

You have to live in the backwoods to have a house & a yard like that. You could buy a descent house in Maine for the price of a shack that has been condemed in Connecticut. Running watter and electricity are optional :D

I have a living room/computer room/baby's play room, 2 bedrooms, a craft room/kitchen (but who needs a kitchen when you can't cook?) and luckily a bathroom with running water... some days I'd trade it all in for a cabin in the woods, electricity and running water optional, acerage required! :D

As for aholics... I'm sure I can beat you all, Stephen even knows how to sew... and he's pretty good at it too. If we could downsize we would, but I guess I better get to work and find a bigger place....

[clae]

I love FABRIC!!! I can't get enough. I buy a least a yard everytime I go to Wal-mart or the fabric shop... I guess you can't have to much!! Ha HA!!!

[Deedles]

Do I have to admit to them all? Let's see...I'm a life long 'ohlic for....fabric, sewing machines (28 at last count) scissors, quilt hoops and frames (years of hand quilting). And now for the last few years add designs to that. I really don't count the embroidery thread because I think having a complete set of 2 brands of thread a necessity, not a fetish!

[Mabel]

I'm definitely a fabricoholic. It's really out of control, but I LOVE IT!

[Yeffie]

I am a fabric a holic, but havne't been able to indulge myself lately.

Soon, I will be back. The fabric bolts should live in fear, hahah!

[sewamy]

Oh, I am a fabric aholic, sewing aholic, sewing books aholic, and quilting magazine aholic.

[fun2sew]

Anything sewing.. aholic!

[idesign]

I have to admit to being a fabric-design-embroidery machine-thread-notion-blanks-and vintage linens aholic! There is so much enjoyment that comes from just having it there for when I am ready for it!

[alissa]

I love fabric and I find fabric in some of the most funniest places. I go to a thrift store and look at clothes like oh do you know what that shirt or dress would look cute as.

[Crafty Connie]

I am a Idea Aholic. I come with great ideas or see great ideas and buy all the stuff to make it, and I never do it. I know, I know, some of you are probably falling off your chairs right now, but it's true. I just need more time in a day!
Hey HEIRLOOMJOHN, wasn't it you that was going to make a clock that gave us more time in a day? How's that coming along? I'm waiting! :D

[huffjoann]

all the above, LOL

[peachy3]

I am a chocoholic, and sewing wise I suppose I am a design aholic. I can not pass up a good freebie. You just never know when you might need that one.
