What do you do without thinking that makes you know you are a quilter?

I was in Wallmart the other day. One of the supervisors had on an overshirt made with a georgeous blue and white print.
She saw me looking at it and said "What?"
I said "Lookout! I am tempted to do a Fons and Porter cutout from the back of your shirt!"
Didn't she laugh!
She wasn't a quilter but had seen their ad on one of the quilters magazines they carry.
