You know you are a true quilter when....

You know you are to cut 2 inch squares for a quilt and you, without thinking, automatically cut 2 and 1/2 inches.
What do you do without thinking that makes you know you are a quilter?

Have to agree with Dakotamaid...
The best one I have heard on this subject is.. looking at the pattern on floor linoleum and saying to yourself..Geez that would make a beautiful quilt block *L* Linda B.

You know you are a Quilter when:
scraps look VERY interesting
carpet and tile on floors has possibilities
you stab yourself on the needle you left in your shirt
you can spot another quilter by the rough pin-pricked finger on their hand
never make mistakes...only create a LOT of design elements
...and most of all...
you must get your Quilters fix each day by stopping in on this board, even if it is just to lurk!

You know you are a quilter when...
...you rush back from the lady's room at the restaurant to sketch the pattern you saw on the tile floor because it would make an outstanding quilt pattern.
...you catch yourself just before you blurt out to the lady in front of you in line at the grocery store "Your skirt would make a great quilt!" (but really, it's a compliment, right?)
...you find yourself thinking that working is sure cutting into your quilting time.
...you go to sleep planning your next quilt.
