...when you carry a lint roller in your purse to clean threads off DH's clothes. (Me, I wear them with pride, he's not so keen on them.)
...when you sit in church imagining how the dress on the lady in front of you would look cut up into a Stack-n-whack or OBW. ...when it makes you sad that you have to go to bed and stop quilting or you will be worthless for anything tomorrow. |

When you spend hours embellishing your art quilt but you can't manage to sew on a button or close a hem. Also, when you go into ANY store and you look around for things you can repurpose for quilting. |

when your mr. fix it stops by and jokes about you having more fabric than walmart

1 pork roast = 2 yards of fabric three pack of underwear = 3 yards of fabric eating dinner out = 5 yards of fabric When you won't let your husband throw away the broken down refrigerator because it would make a great storage space for your fabric. Absolutely! |
When your guest bed in the sewing room gets used more often by you than any guest because you were up till 2:30 and didn't want to wake DH up going to your own bed.
