Does anybody else love looking at the big pattern books? I went to Wal-mart Saturday and just loved all the window treatments, as well as chair cushions, toaster covers and all the other crafts you can sew. I can also get ideas of how to do things without paying for the expensive patterns. Does anyone else get their ideas from the patterns and then not buy the pattern? Makes me feel sorta guilty!

Oh I love to browse, online works great too, I also love to watch people and see how they dress... Like at work and church...
Marcia,
I still find each day too short for all the thoughts I want to think, all the seams I want to sew, all the walks I want to take, all the books I want to read, and all the friends I want to see. |

My name is Denise and I'm a patternaholic
 I think my worst moment was when I came home with a new pattern only to find that I already had the same one in my stash!!  I pretty much limit my pattern buying to Ebay these days....well....unless it's something really special.

I get ideas from patterns, from looking at what people are wearing or how they decorated their house, or whatever. I think it's okay to look at pattern books and dream. There really aren't any original ideas anymore...so they say... just variations on a theme
 So don't feel guilty for being inspired!~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Ok now I know I have done it... I went to the fabric store the other day and came away with no fabric and 6 new patterns... I am still tring to decide which is worse my fabric addiction or my pattern addiction (the patterns take up less space so it is a little dificult to tell
