QUILT ADDICT ON THE LOOSE
#22
A 12 step program for quilting addicts: (Please add to this if I can't come up with enough steps).
1) Pick up a quilting magazine at the grocery while you are waiting for check-out.
2) Inadvertently toss it into your shopping cart and pay for it.
3) Sit down in the living room and glance through the magazine when there's nothing good on TV
4) Ohh and Ahh over the beautiful quilts
5) Fall asleep thinking about the comfort of a handmade quilt
6) Hit the quilt fabric store nearest you
7) Buy up every piece of fabric that catches your eye
8) Keep searching for that perfect piece of trim
9) Realize all the accessories you need and sneak them into the house when hubby isn't looking
10) Start cutting blocks and trim
11) Sew those blocks back together . . . and realize you need some guidance
12) Join the Quilting Board and pick everyone's brain and marvel at their creativeness, and hope someday you can post something even half as good as the seasoned quilters.

You will find lots of company here and prepare to be inspired.....

I see quilt blocks in the clouds on a blue day. Not only bathroom tiles but in my minds eye everything is a block or God forbid(I hate hand sewing anything thanks to my Mother making me sew binding onto baby kimonos) applique.
