I think I would. I might get this one if I can be bothered one of these days. lol

My son is trying to talk me into getting a quilting tattoo. But they sound so painful and I'm such a weenie. I think I'm going to though, a really really small one!
Love that machine but it looks too painful LOL |
Not ME!
|
I have a tattoo, not a quilting one. I got it about 10 yrs. ago. It wasn't painful, at least not much. Go ahead and get one if you want one. Just make sure it is a good, clean place.
|
Hmmmm... what about a quilt block? That may look neat.
|
Very cool! No tats for me yet, but someday...maybe...
|
I have this (sort of) secret urge to get a tattoo... My DH and DS and DDIL would just die...DD would think it was cool. She hates needles so doesn't have one, but would be the one in the family to get one...
A quilt tattoo... great idea! |
No I would not get a tattoo...of any kind! I can't wrap my brain around injecting a permanent dye into my skin. Besides, I work as a nurse in a nursing home, and let's just say... tatoo's don't age well!
|
I feel the same...Not for me...

It seems to be a really generational thing on the whole.
At age 55 I think tatoos are something not done by people MY age although there are always exceptions to that. I agree with the aging thing too...my Dad age 81 has one from the 1950's and it is faded and a saggy mess. LOL |
NO WAY :thumbdown: :thumbdown: :thumbdown:
|
ummmmmmmmmmm.........no........lol.
|
Never!! I've seen people with tatoos who are over the age of 65 and the tatoos look awful. Wrinkled and sagging. Not for me.
|
While they are not for every one and I have seen many that were off putting to me, I do have one I had done over 12 years ago: special meaning to me and it is not placed "out for display"
I would do another one but only for a very special reason, not just as art - not my thing - but I like this idea

I would do a feather around my arm but I can't afford it. I got a three inch size tat 30 years ago and it cost $200. What would it cost today? Yikes
It is an art form that people love or hate. I love them. Very nice machine you got! |
never

"Do you realize that in about forty years, we'll have millions of old ladies running around with tattoos and pierced navels?" (Now that's scary!) |

I won't get a tattoo, but if I can lose 35 lbs., I'll get my belly button pierced. :)
|
LOL never thought of quilt art as what to get in a tattoo.
|
Not a snowball's chance in h---!

Nope! Not my thing!

my boyfriend is 74 he has one "finally", that was the last boat he was going to buy and that was about 30 years old, ha, he would be covered like a maori (sp?) if that was true, but his a little faded but still looks great, now he has another, a rooster, that was a dare, and popeye, that is his nick name, they really do look good, but i think men age different than women, his skin is very thick, and he spends a lot of time in the sun due to his work and is in great shape because of his work, they do look good, his next is betty grable, but if i put a dolphin on me (will be 60 in jan)it would most likely look like a dead mackrel in march,me i am going to pass, but i do think they are cool, just not me, my son looks like a hulking beach bum with his daughters name him , but he is thirty, i told him, just put it where it will not sag, i do not do pain, just a coward
|
You just need to be careful where you put them... not in a place that distorts with the effects of long term gravity :-)
|
A quilting tatoo would be the only one I would choose.
However, I don't want something permanent on my body. I've paid too much money for art on my walls and have grown tired of looking at them. Too easy to take them off the wall. lol So none for me! |
No! Ouch!
|
absoutley not
|
A quilting tattoo?....never thought of one....will have to put some thought into in....one of my favorite blocks, maybe....already have two tats, one on my shoulder back, the other on my calf....I love them and am not ashamed in any way.
|
yes....maybe just a needle and thread or a button.. something tiny ..someday

"Do you realize that in about forty years, we'll have millions of old ladies running around with tattoos and pierced navels?" (Now that's scary!) as far a tatoos aging well or not... wrinkled saggy skin isn't exactly attractive all on it's own... so until then I will enjoy my tatoo, and after -- I'll be to old and saggy to care (I hope) or if I do, I just won't try to twist and turn myself around to look at it :D |

would love to but very phobic of needles I tend to panic. People laugh because I give shots to animals all day. I just tell them I'm not getting the shot so its okay. I compare myself to an aggressive crybaby chihuahua when it comes to needles. I act like a baby and also may bite hah hah
