Barely but I did it! I had planned a vacation day for today. And to celebrate my successfull no-buy month I had a little quilt shop hop planned. Best laid plans and all that I ended up having to work today. :-( So my 2am insomniac moment this morning found me pushing buttons online. And a gorgeous group of fabric will appear in my mailbox next week. NONE of which I have a plan for. :-( But they sure are purty and I'm not even upset with myself. Am I hopeless or what? LOL!
Hopefully my next post will have pictures of stuff actually getting done. We'll see as I'll be working a lot of overtime in the next few weeks so I don't know how much energy I'm going to have for anything besides being a couch potato. But think of all the OT $$$ I'll be making that can be spent on fabric! Yep hopeless I am. :-)

Nancy, I completely understand this hopelessness. I work small projects, and whenever I get done with a project, I like to reward myself with some fabric. Since the fabric shop is on the way home, it seems like fate that I need to reward myself in that way. There is always that lack of time and energy that builds up that need to quilt, and it needs to be released with a big shopping splurge and hopefully a day dedicated to quilting.
Hopeless? Yeah, but we're all in the same boat together!
Take good care of yourself while you're putting in the OT. Take your vitamins and get rested in-between.
We'll leave the light on for ya.
Nancy, you are too funny. You made your month by 2 hours. :-D Isn't it cool that with the internet you can shop at any time?
I do completely understand the burning NEED to purchase fabric.
Nah, you're not hopeless! You're hopeful that you'll be able to sew all the fabric you have. LOL!
I can't wait to see what you purchased!
Yeah, but it's a GOOD kind of hopeless!!
I am so anxious to see what you bought. I'm in the nothing-appeals stage right now, which is a good thing! LOL
You're my hero du jour!
You should be proud of your no-buy month!!! I could never do it - I just say I'm cutting down......but the internet is so easy!!! Can't wait to see what you ordered.......
Oh yeah, know the feeling. I've just declared June to be a "no-buy" month for myself. Hopefully I will make it.
Next week when your goodies come in -- show pictures!!! At least I can admire them vicariously.
