Nope, but we did have a grand time after one of our quilt trips. We all bought one of the stick on tatoos and had a ball with it when we got home. My DH didn't fall for it though, he took one look and asked how long it would take to wash off. HE knows how much I HATE needles! of course quilting needles do not count. ha

No, just my personal preference to not like tattoos. I haven't seen one on any female I think is attractive. I usually just say when shown one, that's interesting. DD got a tiny one on her hip but had the easy to remove ink so she had no no scaring when she had it removed a few years later. Tattoos aren't cheap if done by a professional tattoo artist. Some run into thousands of dollars. DD's tiny frog was about $400 and close to $1000 to have removed. ?
