Quilting in your Dreams
Does anyone else quilt in their dreams? I was doing problem solving in mine last night. Changing needles, picking out fabric, reading a pattern I dont even have, or know the name of.....

Yep, all the time! There is a theory that many problems can be solved while sleeping via dreaming. When you are asleep, your brain doesn't have all the outside stimulus that is present when you are awake. It gives your brain the opportunity to focus on the problem at hand! I have taken 2 different Psychology classes and both of them supported this idea.

Up until yesterday, I'd have said no. But I "woke" at 2:30 this morning....thinking about the next quilt. To say I woke isn't quite right --- all of a sudden I realized I was laying there, wide awake, eyes open, staring at the ceiling thinking of a quilt pattern..............sheesh!!!!!!!!

I was fretting about how to quilt a special quilt I was making for a gift, and I kept dreaming about it night after night. I started dreaming about how to arrange the blocks and went on to quilting it. You might say I was obsessed with it. I finally finished it and stopped dreaming about quilting. The only problem was I felt like I spent the whole night working instead of sleeping. lol
