Wow, I thought I was the only one like this. I would rather be quilting than anything else. I showed my DH the calluses on my fingers the other day from hand quilting. I am fighting the urge to start something new while working on the two now in progress.So I ditto the AMEN

All I want to do is quilt! Can I get an amen on that? |
Amen and Amen!!
|
Amen to that. I am right there with you.
|
Amen
|
AMEN!!!!!!!
|
Amen!!
|
Amen!!! That about sums up my life too, lol!!
|
Amen - I'm with you on that!
|
Sounds normal to me.
|
As the years roll by, I find I can put up with a less clean house. However, ladies are coming for tea on Tuesday, so tomorrow is cleaning day... after church, so there are a couple more Amen's to add to the chorus.
|
Amen, Amen, Amen!!! I think the cure would be to reward yourself each time you did a household chore. Go to the store, quilt. Walk the dogs, quilt. Feed the dogs and people, quilt. Wash dishes, quilt. I think you get the idea.
Another idea while having to do household chores is to plan the next trip to the fabric store. I keep a list ( I am an obsessive list maker) on my fridge on which I write my to do's and to buy's for both the house and quilting. |
If I just didn't have to work 50 hours a week. grrrr
|
Girl, I feel your pain. If you were closer I would loan you a machine and help bottle feed those kids. Then we could sew together. What is that saying? Something like "More hands, make quick work."
|
AMEN
|
And the problem is what? lol
|
AMEN!!
|
amen times ten!
|
AMEN!! QUILTING FOREVER, housework -- whenever , if ever!
|
I am that way also. I have other things to do but do I do them NO. I really like making my quilts.
|
AMEN!! QUILTING FOREVER, housework -- whenever , if ever!
|
I have the answer!!!! More hours in the day!!! Seems so simple, I don't know why we didn't think of it before!
So sorry you have the disease - you know there is no known cure! Wish I could help, but I seem to be up to my own elbows in it! QUILT FOR A CURE!!!! AMEN |
I could have written this.........Are we sick or what?
|
Amen.. I think you have quiltitist, for that there is no cure
|
Amen x 2
|
Oh, I am righ there will all of you!!! I would spend every moment on quiltin if I could.
|
I wish I was more obsessed. I don't know what has happened but lately I haven't wanted to quilt at all. I give you an amen
|
Sounds like a perfect day to me. I am not the driver here. I even got this answer the other day. I quilt in a group once a week. He said Funny but you always move faster and get up and ready in a flash on Thursday! In the spirit of Peace I let it slide. Marvel

Yes indeedeee doo.......you are officially one of us. It will even out eventually when you are contacted for the reality show "Dirty Housewives of South Texas" LOL. Until that time, not to worry. You have plenty of company here.
Seriously, this is a God-given gift that we have, a talent with a purpose. If you think of it that way and present it to anyone who objects in that way, how could they object. You know something else? That housework is all just vanity; you'll be cleaning the same place next week and next month and next year and in the meantime, you will have wasted your talent. Quilts last, housework doesn't. |
Welcome to my world........!!
|
AMEN!

We are in FL for two months. Between family here and company it isn't worth bringing my sewing machine. I do bring knitting and read lots of books, but you quilters keep me fed until I get home. I can hardly wait.
|
Amen and bring on the fabric!
|
Me, too!
My poor husband. |
It beats smoking!
|
AMEN!!!!
|
At the top of my voice!
