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

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.

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!

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
