    The only subject you talk about is fabric, patterns,thread, and how much you need.

    When you tell your DH that the "cottage cheese" on your thighs is "micro stippling."

    When your male boss understands and can explain a fat quarter to female colleagues who can't grasp the concept that a quarter of a yard/metre of fabric can be cut in different ways and still be a quarter. And still remember it 4 years after you stopped working for him.

    When your computer id's or password has the word "quilt" somewhere in them. (Even at work!)

    When your cat is even a patchwork kitty (calico cat). Didn't plan on this but a beautiful stray calico cat came up to our back door and she was very, very thin. So we feed her.....she moved in a week later. She's been with us for 2 years now.

    When deciding if you really need somthing , you think about how many yards of fabric the $$ would buy. I always ask myself "would I give up ..X...amount of fabric to buy this?".

    When you stop at the quilt store after a bad day at work, just to get a happy and serene feeling. (You don't need to buy anything, just need the atmosphere). Good thing I have a LQS on my way home from work.

    Lol I do this too. It puzzles my husband. He questions why I go there but don't get anything. I tell him I DO get something there, but it's both priceless and free!
