In the April 8th Quilter's Quips and Tips, TQS asked its members to complete the following sentence, "You know you're a quilter when..."  The responses were charming, heartwarming and filled with truth.  Take a look at what your fellow quilters had to say and see if you don't smile knowing they are a lot like you.

You know you're a quilter when you have more sewing machines than pots and pans!

Your kid is the only one in school with a home made lunch bag.

When you are on vacation and see the entire experience as examples of "that would be a great quilt" comments.

You know you're a quilter when you reach in your purse and there are more sewing supplies in there than money.

You know you're a quilter when you go out to dinner with your husband and he is the one with thread in his hair.

You know you're a quilter when you have closets full of fabric instead of actual clothes!

...you try to convince your husband that, one, a long-arm machine would be a good purchase and the perfect place to put it would be the living room in place of his big-screen TV!

You know you are a quilter when you miss a meal quilting and don't notice you are hungry!

...you look at a floor or a wall and moan because you don't have your camera with you... and your husband understands just what you mean and reminds you to use your phone to take the picture.

You know you are a quilter when... you look at your computer screen and see 14 quilting related icons.

You know you're a quilter when you're working on a quilt and a new idea pops in your head so you take a break from quilting to quilt.

when you have made the cover for your pickleball paddle from a new quilting technique, just to try it.
