It's a misnomer because of an omission in the original translation. In the 16 century the L was accidentally left out. The original quote was, " quilters never win and winners never quilt." It is something that has stuck now for centuries much to the dismay of quilting grandmothers all over the world.

Honest.

Then I guess it should be "Quilt while you're ahead" then? :wink:
