Ok so in the shop (work at an sheet metal, HVAC co.) and one piece of ductwork had such a beautiful design on it I thought wouldn't that be a wonderful piece of material?

I know many of us see clothes on people and would like to cut them into strips, pieces, triangles and squares....but sheet metal?

Is there a cure?

Sorry -- don't think there is a cure cause I have the same illness. However, a trip to the LQS helps you feel better :lol: :lol:

Oh yes, I see patterns everywhere. I love the swirly design sheet metal gets. It would make a lovely blender fabric.

yes, and I want to add copper, and stainless to it, I just get so involved at looking at the different designs I can't help myself.

No cure.
I see them....
I see quilts....
They talk to me....
There are quilts EVERYWHERE!!

H E L P !

Never mind. I don't want help.
I love being able to see things in other things that aren't really there.
It's amazing what inspires us.

Enjoy your visions. :thumbup:

So sorry Maryse: But if I told my DH, he might want to take me to the padded room (wouldn't be bad, if I could have it full of my sewing stuff though).

you could pretend you're on a really big pincushion.

LOL, the padded room might be nice here somedays, too!
