Quilter’s sayings
 
To quilt is human, to finish divine.
Quilters press to the dark side.
Quilters know when to hold em and when to fold em.
and my favourite......A quilt on the bed is worth 2 in the head.

My favorite is: "there is no such thing as a perfect quilter. The only perfect quilter is God!"

Love those Tartan!

I have three quilting related t-shirts.
Quilting is my Therapy
(I chose that over "I quilt because choking people is frowned upon" but I believe they mean about the same thing...)
It's ok if you think sewing is boring, it's sort of a smart people hobby
(it's all flowery and looks so sweet until you read it -- sort of like me)
and
It's all fun and games until the bobbin runs out!

My personal mantra from last year is "the quilt I make depends on the fabric I have". And my mouse pad says "A fat quarter is not a body part".

This I’ve seen on a shirt “Serial Quilter”

One of my favorites is “quilting is my passion, chocolate comes in a close 2nd.”

grammasharon, your signature makes a nice quilter's saying too.

Available on Amazon and other sites! Just search on funny shirts for quilters and several different options will come up. The funniest one was taken down, it had a typo in "sweing" which just made if funnier. Blame me, I mentioned it to the company.

One of my quilting t-shirts says " Yes I have a retirement plan, I plan on quilting"

I really like:

"It's ok if you think sewing is boring, it's sort of a smart people hobby"

But I'd change it to "quilting" vs sewing

The equivalent of saying someone is not right in the head: "Sewing on an empty bobbin."

Quilters are real cut-ups.

I quilt, therefore I am invincible!

Blessed are the children of a quilt maker for they shall inherit quilts.
