Ha, I'm a fabricologist too. My son has taken to referring to what I call my "quilting center" (formerly mom's office/library/junk room) as "Mom's laboratory". I keep testing fabrics and battings and sandwiching and trying different machine quilting things with my new walking foot, but he has yet to see finished product after my first quilt back in January. And I have to smuggle in new fat-quarters fabric which I am hiding in the piano bench... LOL :) :) :) :-D
