    When your husband ask you if that is all you are getting when after an hour in the quilting store all you come out with is a package of

    bobbins.

    Love this. My husband looks for those shops all on his own anymore. Always asks where the quilting travel book is!!

    Great idea. It's my thread, but sending it to hubby would b so cool. He knows I'm addicted. He tells me all the time that I should start a Quilters Anonymous. Haha, we r all addicts if we call ourselves quilters.

    Sorry, but who is Don Sherry? If his suits inspire quilts, must see his suits.

    rob529, Don Cherry was a Canadian hockey coach and is now a Canadian icon for hockey fans. Google him, go to images and for the sake of your eyes....wear sunglasses....lol!

    When you start to think of any spending in terms of yards of fabric
    1 pork roast = 2 yards of fabric
    three pack of underwear = 3 yards of fabric
    eating dinner out = 5 yards of fabric

    When you won't let your husband throw away the broken down refrigerator because it would make a great storage space for your fabric.

    When you take your daughters shopping and you think that dress/shirt/skirt would be wonderful in a quilt.
