You might be a quilter if the top 4 shelves of your pantry contain batting as opposed to food.

My SIL keeps doing that! Someday she's going to cut the shirt right off of me for her quilts! She reads the Quilting Board too, so if you see this, keep your scissors away from my blouse! :wink:

your daughters take you shopping and won't let you enter the fabric store or fabric department because you need new cloths (they think) and you won't buy cloths if you get to the fabric store first.

I enjoy making block designs or quilting designs (like feathers!) with the lawn mower when I have to mow the lawn!

My DH keeps telling me to toss my socks that have holes in them. I don't know why, my shoes cover the holes. lol
And why do I need new clothes - the old ones still fit and I can buy so much more fabric instead! I'm with you on this one.
