When you google all the quilt shops wherever you're going on vacation. Then ask your husband to stop at them. (I'm blessed and my husband does, because he enjoys looking)

We don't have a home we have a large quilting room with small areas to sleep and eat. :)

Can I live with you :?: Sounds like a great place to be :thumbup: :thumbup:

Quilting and housekeeping do not belong in the same sentence.

I knew I was addicted when I used my mobile phone to take a picture of my TV screen. The wall paper in the background of the movie would make a great quilt.

The only place housework comes before quilting is in the dictionary

I am not addicted to quilting. I only have 6 machines and my fabrics are only in 2 rooms (my sewing room is the great room). I do go someplace other then a fabric store... I am sure of it... I will think of where else I have been any minute... Quilting is just my hobby - not an addiction - I am sure there is a difference. And I am only on this site because I love what you all have to say about quilting - reading your comments makes me happy. I am just really into my hobby.

When you can't wait until lunch time so you can go out and sit in your car in 100 degree weather to do hand applique and listen to books on tape for 1 precious hour!

When you are happy the long light turns red---- you can make at least one yo-yo......

When you're at the movie theater, and you wonder if there's enough light to do some handwork... and if the LED book light would bother anyone....
