    You have the square frames inside the glass in your windows at home and you are thinking about what you could use to color them in to make them look like a 9 patch design!!!!!!

    While sitting in a fast food joint you realize their bench fabric would be a great quilt THEN put it together in your mind the easiest way!

    Something we could do, is go to the flooring store and see how many neat quilt patterns we could find on the linoleum samples!!

    you eat in front of the T.V because your 'project' is taking up the dining table.
    You find an antique quilt at the swap meet, it has so many holes in it everyone with you thinks you're crazy , but you still buy it!
    Your dog has a custom coat made from an antique quilt

    1) You can't just sit and watch TV, you have to be sewing or quilting at the same time.

    2) Your car is trained to turn into every fabric store parking lot it passes!

    When.... you pick floring for your sewing room that looks like Quilt blocks, and pictures that have quilts in them, sewing themed tins everywhere, excited when someone gives you the big ribbon cutting scissors from a grand opening. Because everyone knows thats your thing. (take that as a compliment) that was kind of sweet :)
