Default Obsessed quilter - literally designing quilts in my sleep

I am so amused by this.

I had a very realistic dream Saturday night, in which I was giving a quilt to my DH's grandmother for her birthday. In the dream I was explaining to her that it's a different style than I usually make and in the dream I showed her the whole quilt and explained how I made it and why it's different from my usual quilts. (It's a tied quilt, in 30's feedsack-style repro fabrics. VERY different from my usual style.)

Woke up and realized it's a done deal...I am going to make that exact quilt, and I am going to give it to her for her birthday, just like in my dream. I drew the quilt out in the morning, waited until Beverly's opened, went and bought the fabric for it before I could "lose" the design in my head....best part is about 90% of the fabric I bought for the quilt was found on the half-off table. After work tonight I'll get the fabric washed and cut....quilt will be done well in time for her birthday (in November).

It's a quilt that was just meant to be! I think she'll really like it, too.
