Hello, my name is Jan, and I have a problem!
So, Jan, what is your problem? :lol: :lol: :lol:

"So, Jan, what is your problem?"

Too funny! I started quilting this summer so am really new at this. I've noticed other signs of my addiction, but today is the first day I find myself craving my blocks.

I'm reading a book set in the 1800's and the main character is 87 and a quilter. Her block is in her apron pocket to pull out as needed - complete with thread and needle of course. She says her stitches are the size of grains of rice. It's interesting to read of the lack of materials - including batting - and the steps it took to get a quilt finished. I do not long for the "good old days"!

Aaahhh.. the squishy! Yeah, I get a lot of those too.

It's only a 'problem' if you perceive it that way(-;
You're in good company, no matter what you call it!
