    I wake up in the middle of the night to go to the bathroom and still thing about quilting. Sometimes when a person talks to me with a long story, my mind is on quilts.
    I could think of quilts at a wedding and funeral! So bad but I am obsessed.

    close your eyes and rub them gently for a few minutes and you will see fractals! While they are closed. It goes away when you open them.

    If you google "fractal galleries" you will find lots of beautiful photos to base quilts on. It's on my "someday" list.

    In addition to being a quilt book, it's beautiful!

    I think about new projects all the time. Several times I must have been really concentrating because my husband looked at me and said, "What's wrong?" The first time I actually told him about the quilt I was designing in my head. He said, " Oh, a quilt. I thought something was really wrong from the look on your face." Now when he ask, I say, "Do you REALLY want to know?" lol :)

    I think it's a mathmatical concept. Personally, calculating yardage and HST is enough arithmetic for me!

    If there is a looney bin out there for quilters, I hope it's stocked with fabric.

    Quilter 68, when I first read your post I thought it was a joke. After I found out what fractals were I understood. Boy, the things you can learn on here is unbelievable.
