You know you're a quilter when...

Your husband offers to buy you a beautiful mother's ring with your
children's birthstones set in it, and the FIRST thought that pops into
your head is, "I could buy a sewing machine with that much money."

*whistles a little tune*

You're scouting out the easiest route to
the hospital this afternoon for the
c-section in two weeks and you're wondering
if there is a Joann's nearby in case you
need fabric and if you should pack some
hand-piecing in your birthing bag...

LOL I *did* pack a handquilting project in the birthing bag.. though I
didn't get round to it till after he was born

oh... and just because you have an appointment for the C-section doesn't
mean the baby cant get there sooner ... my second proved that! I had been to
the hospital and had all the checks and made the appointment and that *very*
same evening (too late to bother) Alexander decided enough was enough! and
he emerged the next day

baby's have their own schedules ;-)

Well, that does it! I *am* going to pack some
hand-sewing in my bag!

Heck, that's what we were worried about on Friday
night. My contractions were coming 10 minutes
apart and I'd called my doctor... Thankfully,
after a lot of water and relaxing, they stopped.
Maybe I should stop moving bookcases around...

(I really need to finish the valance for the
22-month-old Pillbug before I have this baby!)

mmmm speaking from my humble, single but quite recent experience, don't
bother packing a quilting project in your birthing bag.... good luck
with everything, BTW!
