    You know you're a quilter when...

    You find yourself looking at a pattern in the bathroom floor and thinking, "Oh, that would make a pretty quilt block. Let's see, I can make that out of half-square triangles and if I set it on point I will have large pieces of negative space to quilt in and then I can..."

    You know you are a quilter when
