YES. I have fallen by the way side and will need therapy. I have been useing my mantra to good effect. " I must not buy more designs. I must not buy more designs" it had worked for over 36 hours and i was feeling so good.
Last night my "Dear" friend decided it was time to test my resiliance and steered me to the Urban threads website.I took a quick look, no more than that when temptation grabbed me by the thoat and held me in its grasp.
I spotted the ideal stocking filler for my newly divorced daughter. "not her fault"
She has decided to learn how to make parchwork quilts and so will be useing lots of pins and here was the perfect pin cushion.
its a voodoo doll pin cushion ( did say you needed a sense of humour).
HOW COULD I RESIST IT ?
yes it was in my trolly and paid for before i came to my senses.
but the first one I make will not be a male with ginger hair it will be a female with brown curly hair, and i will be useing a lot of pins today.
if you would like to see what i mean.look below but do not blame me if you too feel the need to join in the fun, I have enough twinges and aches and pains without more being added.

Oh my gosh, I love it, both your writing and the design, lol. Wish I could afford to get it now but my limit on design purchase has ended till past Christmas. Now if I had a way to get fingernail clippings and a lock of hair from a few people in my past I'd jump on that doll anyway!
33580I KNOW the feeling, you are not alone,I do not remember how many time i said to myself this is the last ABC to collect or I am not going to buy more fabrics,one of this days i will keep my promiseLOL
26714Thanks Annie, I just love Urban Threads they are so different. I think many of us have decided not to buy anymore designs and then fallen. In my case it was also to Urbanthreads. Perhaps there is a market for the dolls. Anyone out there who wants to digitise 'I must not buy anymore designs' it should be a hit.
115763I think we all could think of someone to give this one to. But for now, I must not buy more designs.

6615Welcome to the Cute addiction group. I have decided that I will buy designs until I either run out of money, become too incapicitated to purchase or die. I no longer beat myself up about it. My only rule is that the designs have to be on sale.
169064Annie thank you for the link, I have a few friends that would love that voodoo doll that resemble their ex husbands. Hehehehe
Very tempting trying to restrain myself from purchasing it.
I think I might use your mantra,I must not buy more designs.

go on buy it and have fun sitting around the coffee table with all your friends thinking up reasons why they need to put a pin into their own pin cushion and the satisfaction of doing just that. annie. Make them into females as the woman who took the man. I can hear the giggles from here
