When a co-worker walks by and you say, "nice shirt" and you're thinking.....that would look great in a quilt!!!

You look at the tiles in the bathroom floor and think, Quilt Pattern!

I have uneven nine patch in the kitchen and dining room. Hall and family room are herringbone braid. Took DH a minute to figure out it was quilt pattern. LOL

<groan> I do this! And travel 40 minutes to one thrift store where the owner LOOKS for vintage fabrics for me, then calls me when she finds them....

You might be a quilter if any of your numerous cats or dogs is named any of the following: "HST", "FMQ", "LQS", or "OBW" -- or --

"Baby" (babylock)
"SingSing" (Singer)
"Vicky" or "Leif" (Viking)
"John", "Cadfiel" or "Sissie" (Brother)
"Harriet" (Free)
"Nina" or "Berni" (Bernina)
"Jan" or "Naomi" (Janome)
"Homie" (New Home)

Cats or dogs? How about your children?

You look at all the leaves on your plants and think, "That would make a good FM quilting pattern."

I see a quilt in everything I look at. Just can't make them all, so I just go tradional.

When you see a book or pattern or fabric you just LOVE and HAVE to have, but then you think ... "Do I ALREADY have this ???" :wink:
