    I actually told a co-worker I would like to have her blouse when she got tired of it. That I wanted to put it in a quilt. I was lucky in that she took it as a nice compliment. Never got the blouse though. She got transfered.

    You know you are a quilter when
    ...you wait for the house to get quiet after everyone has gone to bed, just so you can have a little time for yourself and your sewing machine!

    I was tagged as a quilter in a store when I asked another shopper if two fabrics went together.

    You know you are a quilter when silly thoughts enter your mind like: "I could quite my job, and stand on the street with a sign reading will work for fabric". (really this silly thought has swept through my mental attic on more than one occassion) :roll:

    With me it's that I'm thinking abt quilting just before going to sleep and still thinking abt quilting when I wake up in the mornings...Always planning the next days project during those periods.

    You know you are a quilter when your guests can follow the thread trail into the bathroom.

    You know your a quilter when you can relate costs of items to how many yards that could of bought you

    You know your a quilter when you have more fabric fuzz, threads and fabric snipits than your dryer lint catcher does!!
