Projects start out as WHIMMs (Works Hidden in My Mind).
When you make the purchase of pattern and fabric you have a PIG (Project In a Grocery sack). At this time it may also be a brazen HSY. (Haven'tStarted Yet) Once you start, it is a WIP. (Work In Progress) A WIP is worked on until completion.
Once you lose interest and set it aside it's a UFO (UnFinished Object).
Then you're encouraged by your Quilty friends to FIUP (Finish It UP) and then you can loudly shout TGIF (Thank God It's Finished)!!!!!!!! And you can post the picture in the photos section or in the monthly contest for finished projects. You'll also get much praise for those projects that you've FINALLY finished.
The collection of fabrics you'll use to complete your project is your STASH (Special Treasure All Secretly Hidden)
Occasionally you'll need random SEX (Stash Enhancing Xperiences--or Stash Enhancement Xpedition--Shopping!) after finishing a FART (Fabric Acquisition Road Trips) or a WOMBAT (Waste Of Money, Batting, And Time).
And the final most important thing is to leave a SABLE (Stash Accumulation Beyond Life Expectancy) to your fabric-loving heirs.
This was sent to me from on my Dear Jane newslist.... I love it so I thought I would share.

Thanks for posting the source for those great quilt isms. For our spring luncheon of our in park quilt group, we had plastic easter eggs and each one had a saying in it kind of like a fortune cookie. It was fun to open them and read your own aloud and here what everyone had in their eggs.
