Heck, I've bought cards simply because the picture on front would make a nice applique pattern, not to actually give someone.

When you and hubby are watching a very serious intense movie and suddenly you shout, "Hey, look at that quilt in the background! And, look, there's another one!". Then I spend the rest of the movie looking for more quilts.

Great tip to carry spools and an assortment of bobbins to try out machines at yard and estate sales.

These replies are a rush. I could own up to all but the hurricane ones. Of course there's the time I was visiting a friend and had to use the bathroom. While sitting there I was planning a quilt with the flooring as the blocks. :-)
