These are all great! Some made me LOL!
I quilt so my house is in pieces
A Fat Quarter has less calories than a Hot Fudge Sunday
A yard a day keeps the blues away
Blessed are the piecemakers, for they shall quilt forever!
Creative minds are rarely tidy
Fabricologist Resource Center. Now doesn't that sound more impressive than "fabric stash"?
Enter this sewing room at your own risk
I love quilting and have plenty of material witnesses
In the crazy quilt of life, I am glad that you are in my block of friends
Itching to be stitching
One quilting project, like one cookie, is never enough
Pray for pieces!
Quilters never cut corners
Will work for FABRIC!
If you stitch fast enough it counts as aerobic exercise!
I got a sewing machine for my husband. Good trade huh?
Quilters know all the angles
The best kind of sleep neath Heaven above, is under a quilt hand stitched with love.

I found this poem and I HAD to share it:
Quilter Husbands Lament by Cathy Miller
I've always learned that life was full of obstacles and woes.
I've learned to live with sickness, death, taxes, Heaven knows.
I've taken all these things in stride, the problems and the strife,
But one I didn't count on was a Quilter for a wife.
Come home from work, the stove is cold, the dirty clothes still there,
The suit I wanted cleaned today still laying on the chair.
"Where's Mama, son?" I asked my boy , "This house is such a mess
Why, all the sheets are missing, we've been burglarized I guess."
"No, Mama stripped down all the beds and took the sheets away.
She cut them into little strips and pieced two quilts today."
"Why every pair of pants I own are cut in little squares".
"I'm demonstrating applique," my lovely wife declares.
I show up to the office in my boxer shorts and tie.
My secretary giggles and the clerks give me the eye.
It's freezing cold, I'm shaking, and my knees are turning blue.
My boss considered firing me but his wife's a quilter too.
I told him what happened and he said he could believe.
I notice that the coat he wore had only half a sleeve!
A husband needs a loving wife to help him when he's ill.
To soothe and comfort, mop his brow and help him take his pills.
Should influenza strikes you, your life's not worth a dime.
Particularly if it hits during Quilt Convention time.
You'll lay there in an empty house in pain and deep despair
While the workshops and the lectures keep your wife's attention there.
You learn to ask no questions when she smiles and drives away.
Rushing to the fabric shop for a big sale there today.
She's gone for hours, then drags back home all bleary eyed and down,
Now, who'd believe a lie like that? She must be running round.
But I'll get by, I always do, some days are fine, some not.
When your wife's a Quilter you tolerate a lot.
I know that when my life is through and I pass away,
They'll have to set my funeral so it's not a Quilting Day!
