YOU KNOW YOU’RE A QUILTER IF…

No matter where you are from-

There are certain “tells” that one is a quilter…

For example, if YOU know what these scraps are–and wouldn’t dream of throwing them away…

Chain Piecing Leader

Then YOU are a quilter (and not a quilter’s uninformed husband–ahem!)

If YOU are a quilter, then YOU know that these are “Leaders and Enders” and highly valued for chain piecing!

(FYI–Someone told me that the first quilter to use scraps of fabric to prevent threads getting jammed in the sewing machine while piecing was the amazing Donna Lynn Thomas--a fabulous teacher and author!)

Chain Piecing Leader

You  also know you are a quilter if the word “stiletto” makes you think of quilting and not shoes…

 

Chain Piecing Leader

You know you’re a quilter if you measure progress

and can’t throw away…

Empty Spools of thread

Is there any other way YOU know Quilters are a little different?

We’d LOVE to hear!

Yours,

Lori Quirkennedy
