What's the fun in ironing clothes? ;) Pressing means we get to quilt. My DH dosn't get it but smiles & says 'do what makes you happy.;

Feel free to keep the list going :)

You ask your husbands friend if you could have his cotton shirt when he tires of it because you love the fabric.

I look at people's 100% cotton button up shirt and think about what pattern block it would look the best in :XD:

I took pictures in a furniture store of some patterns in the furniture and turned it into a quilt pattern

Using "On Star" for directions to Mary Lou's Fabrics. (My friend did this for me last weekend.) What a good friend!

When you hang out newly hand washed fat quarters on the washing line and can feel happy just looking at them!

when quilts come and go and your husband's shirt hangs for 5 months on the back of your chair waiting for 1 button to be sewn on.

(I told him I don't "sew" anymore and offered to show him how to do it!)

It has long sleeves so he won't need it for a few more months anyway. :)
