A Quilter Is Someone Who...

 


Saves ten boxes of scraps

Has one corner of the house an eternal mess

Buys half a yard of fabric

When on vacation, goes to the quilt shop in every town

Is always looking for new ideas

Spends sleepless nights thinking about color combinations

Has a pile of books and magazines in her room

Is always picking up pins and bits of thread from the floor

Works on a quilt for a year, then gives it away

Watches TV with a needle in her hand

Is forever ironing 

Is never bored

Forgets to water the lawn

Finds treasure at a garage sale

Always has time to help a friend.
