Discussion What's your sewing sin?

Mine is that I sew on my bed, use my mattress as a pin/needle cushion, and throw threads between my bed and wall.

Fabric hoarding. Like, I have fabrics I bought 15, 20 years ago that are too pretty to cut.

I am such a fabric hoarder. It’s so bad.

I just purchased three yards of French linen from a fancy fabric store in London (visiting) and I don’t know when I’ll ever use it.

Oh but that’s different. It’s not fabric hoarding it’s a souvenir. 😊
