    You see a mans tie and think, 'that would look great in a quilt'. Just yesterday I noticed a tie a man was wearing and asked him where he got it, then I told his wife it would look great in a quilt. LOL

    When you find yourself saying..."Hold on kids, I'm just going to finish this one row"...all the time! P.S. I love the one about the movies. I totally find quilts in the back grounds of movie scenes!!!

    When everyone sits down to eat supper, and in advance, you warn them "who ever finds thread in their food wins a prize" My kids still remember that!

    When you find the stair railing in the courthouse to have a very interesting pattern. When you buy 18" square carpet tiles to cut up into half square triangles for the floor. When the sunrise covers the sky with interesting shades of pink. When Christmas cards get filed away for future picture quilts. When you have so many UFOs, you really need a larger house. When you bore your friends because every conversation gets steered to your favorite subject .......

    When you would rather spend money on fabric instead of new shoes or clothes!

    When all of your computer time is donated to looking at quilting sites or designing a new quilt on a software program or...yikes.....on this board! I haven't played a game of solitaire in......well, I don't know.

    When the church charity store throws out 2 antique or old messy quilts you quit volunterring to help. The sorters are not crafters but I heard about it later anyway. Haven't helped for 4 yrs because of this.
