My latest obsession....
I've been sewing for a long long time. So you can imagine that I have quite a stash of sewing goodies including fabric, buttons, zippers and such. But my latest obsession is sewing books and fun bag patterns. I'm not even going to embarrass myself and try to show you how many patterns I have "acquired" in recent months, but lets just say that if I made them all I probably wouldn't have to buy another bag for the rest of my life. I keep finding patterns I like better than the ones I haven't even made yet. What is up with that? When people would say that the Internet can be dangerous, I had no idea that this was what they were talking about. Makes me think about the line from the movie Silence of the Lambs where Hannibal asks Agent Starley, "How is it that we first come to covet?" and she answers "By what we see".
i suffer from a pattern obsession myself. LOL
