Been there, done that!:)

You are on a first name basis with all the local quilt shops...
You consider getting a job at a quilt shop in order to pay for your "fabric habit"...



or you can't believe you are witnessing your hubby pick up your Gingher scissors to cut a staple. I did mention to him if he would like to keep his head on, he will PUT DOWN THE SCISSORS!!!!!!

When you give up cleaning, cooking and even shopping because all you want to do is quilt. Missed a spectacular sale this weekend, at the quilt shop no less, because I couldn't drag myself away from my project. Rationale - always another sale.

When your df doesn't even blink and eye when you text him in a rage over a fabric mix up. Lol. Nor does he blink when you say you threw the offending fabric away.


Over verb a year ago before I knew better I bought broadcloth. I thought I got it all out of my bins and found out today that I didn't and had to rip apart my blocks. All df said was to let him know if I needed cash for a fabric trip. Lol. He's such a good guy.

lol...you might be a very lucky quilter if this happens! :thumbup:

I love this, I live in Charlotte NC and every time we drive south on I85 and pass the exit where MaryJo's is my df asks if I want to stop... He can be an enabler, found a really neat quilt shop on our way back from Disney a few years ago....

When your towels and wash cloths come from the dryer with threads on them.

You might be a quilter if... you think using your saliva to guide your thread thru the sewing machine needle is AWESOME! :D
