    You Might be a Quilter if....

    1. You have a stash and it isn't illegal.
    2. You come to the realization that fabric breeds. You KNOW you've never seen some of that stuff in there before.
    3. You buy your own Christmas presents from the fabric shop and give them to DH to put under the tree.
    4. You know you are an online quilter if you know what DH means!!
    5. You find yourself drawing the bathroom tile pattern on a piece of toilet tissue in a public restroom.
    6. Fabric Fondling does't sound obscene.

        I haven't experienced sketching in the john but I've definitely been known to sketch in public places or snap a quick photo when no one's looking. I most definitely meet the profile!

            I knew I was a quilter when I first began to see geometrical designs in everything, a block waiting to be made.
            Yep, that and of course, thread on everything instead of lint.

              Yes include me as well.

              How about dreaming of Jenny. I actually spoke to her in my last dream. NO kidding here! I really did dream of Jenny.

                    Quilty as charged!! I used to work for the State of Missouri and as I was proofing a brief I had written the following typo caught my eye....."The Defendant entered a plea of Quilty on 7-11-03......." I wonder how many of those are on official State documents due to my obsession with "all things quilty".

                      How about adding to the list...watching commercials for quilts in them; tv programs as well...the rest all apply of course...been guilty on all counts and yes I swear fabric breeds and sometimes runs away too!

                          Our bathroom tile is laid in a variation of a D9P! My husband looks through my more traditional quilt block patterns for tile ideas. Some would require too much work on the wet saw to be practical.

                            I look at my hubby's outdoor magazines == he sees a deer or bear...etc... and I see a quilt pattern!

                            Also..if the only thing on your Christmas wish list has to do with Quilting!!
