I use a tiny little vacuum cleaner to get all the threads and the dog hair off a just finished quilt.

Thank goodness I'm not the only one. I was keeping that embarassing little secret until now.

Does anyone else think this thread would make an awesome quilt or fabric?

[quote=quiltingbee12]I'm thinking, when you respond, put something else you might be a quilter if you do.

When you go to get out of your chair. A quilting needle skewers you to the chair. Yelling all the while your hubby is asking whats wrong! Ugh did that hurt. I found the needle buried in the chair cushion all is well and my butt is on the mend. LOL.

while someone is speaking to you, you drift off thinking of your quilt project at home.
I've done this at church, weddings, while DH is talking, MIL talking, etc. LOL

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

When you have your bathroom updated your have the tiler use a quilt pattern on the wall behind the tub.

Instead of counting sheep at night you do FMQ in your head. Funny thing I still run out of room and have to reposition my hands on the quilt. Drives me CRAZY!

...if you go to the Scrapbook shops with DD and comment that "that paper would make a great fabric for such and such quilt". I have been known to buy the paper, scan it and print it out on printable fabric sheets!!
