    My DH came across an interesting article. In it it says that quilters live a longer life because they quilt and it is a very relaxing hobby. He tried to find it again, but, does not remember where he saw it

    I really love knowing that. Maybe he made it up just to encourage all of us!

    I was at the Dr. recently for my annual check up and we were talking about the life span of people. He said the average person lives to be 87 yrs. old. I gasped!!! I MUST live longer than that! I have too many UFO's to get done! He laughed because his wife is a quilter too. ;-)

    I heard that on the morning news, it said quilters were more relaxed, not as stressed, as people who do not quilt!

    Such great news. I have so much stash to use up. And I have to own my quilting toys long enough to justify the expense.
