Our quilt guild had a quilt show in Chesterfield, Indiana and had a basket full of free goodies. I picked up a small zip bag with M and M candies all different colors of this candy and had this cute saying on the back on the quilt show business card.

"Quilters Transquillizers"

Yellow: Soothes nerves when you need to buy fabric and the quilt shop is closed.

Blue: Relaxes tense muscles when your fabric stash looks low

Brown: relieves panic attacks when you can't find a place to hide more fabric.

Orange: minimize depression if you spent the fabric allowance before the sale started.

Green: lessens guilty feelings of using grocery money when Orange didn't work

Red: reduces frustration when you can't find the perfect fabric

Warning: Using more than one color at a time is known to cause late night sewing and excessive fabric handling.

yes, so cute and would be a good favor for quilt guilds meetings or to give away a small gift at quilt shows!

It's not unfinished it's half finished.
Asking a quilter to mend is like asking a chef to wash dishes.
Give a quilter an inch and she'll think she's a ruler.
Quilting is always more pressing than housework.
Behind every quilter there's good backing.

That was cute. Will have to get a supply of M & M's for my sewing room.

They are both cute!

Especially "Quilting is always more pressing than housework."

Blessed are the children of the piecemakers, for they shall inherit the quilts.
