Do you actually quilt MORE or LESS than you did before you subscribed to this list?? - Myself, I am motivated more, but sure am on this list wayyyyyyyyyy too much. It is quite enjoyable tho, 'learned alot, met some terrific people.

less

Pam 07-14-2010 05:32 AM

Too much time here, but I figure I am exercising my witty bone, so not a waste of time.

Rebecca VLQ 07-14-2010 05:35 AM

Um....less than I want to because I now have MORE ideas! :D

ljs317 07-14-2010 05:38 AM

Way, way more than i used to! There is so much motivation on here to get things done.

Ms Grace 07-14-2010 05:39 AM

Most days, when I can get away from the computer, I quilt alot more.

livenlearn124 07-14-2010 05:41 AM

This place is certainly an inspiration... but I would get alot more accomplished if the internet went out. =)

But then Im sure I'd find a way to put the app on my blackberry.


This forum is addicting!

LOVE IT!

dkabasketlady 07-14-2010 05:52 AM

Way less, but I'm not complaining either!! This place is addictive, but also sew inspiring!

MaryStoaks 07-14-2010 05:58 AM

I quilt more. I get inspired by all the great ideas and pictures posted. I always find something new to try.

cjomomma 07-14-2010 06:03 AM

I started spending less time here so I could get some quilting done.

yolanda 07-14-2010 06:04 AM

less because i spend time here thinking about it

Bottle Blonde 07-14-2010 06:08 AM

I quilt more. I used to crochet A LOT, and had mastered that craft so it was becoming a little boring. Now I dedicate all my spare time to quilting. This forum inspires me and gives me the confidence to try new things. I like the challenge and the helpful tips and support this board provides takes a lot of the frustration out of learning a new craft. Thanks everyone!

FunkyMonkey 07-14-2010 06:17 AM

I think I do about the same, but I do get sooo many great tips and the chit chat is awesome!

All Thumbs 07-14-2010 06:22 AM

I am like FunkyMonkey---quilt about the same but the inspiration is fantastic from these threads. I quilt about three hours a day during the summer months but come fall-winter when the television is on football I find myself in basement sewing room from afternoon till evening. DH and I are very happy in this retirement arrangement. :lol:

heather1949 07-14-2010 06:27 AM

No i definately do less and only a newie here , so I look like I am in real trouble.

Boston1954 07-14-2010 06:28 AM

It's about the same for me. I get a lot of motivation here. I did not get much done before though, because where we lived, my sewing room was in the basement and that part of the house was not air conditioned.

aorlflood 07-14-2010 06:31 AM

At first I would have to say I was quilting less...but now that I've been a member for almost a month, I find that it is inspiring me to quilt MORE!

imjustme 07-14-2010 06:32 AM

More

shaverg 07-14-2010 06:35 AM

Actually more, this has motivated me. But I am on the board way too much. Boy I would be a quilting fool, if I put the hours into hand quilting, I put on the board. LOL

stpatmom 07-14-2010 06:35 AM

This site gives me the motivation. Especially when I see all of the beautiful projects others have done. I definitely spend a lot more time on the internet though!

Well, it is pretty unamimous, isn't it? The motivation is THROUGH THE ROOF! - I PICTURE myself doing yet another project, and then---------I get------------side-tracked. Wouldn't change it for the world! The photos that are posted are WONderful, the links are great, and everyones' energy is fantabulous! ------------ How come we don't hear from Eddie that much anymore?? hmmmmmmmmmmm

charmpacksplus 07-14-2010 06:56 AM

I have definitely bought more fabric so I must be more motivated and I've practically become an expert just by reading all the post everyday. My to-do list has also gotten longer. But have I quilted more or less? Are you kidding? Do you people actually still have time for that? LOL

Quilt4u 07-14-2010 06:59 AM

More. I have joined more swaps. So I do more.

DebraK 07-14-2010 07:30 AM

no change.

stitchhappy 07-14-2010 08:08 AM

I used to quilt all day long before I started working full time. Now I don't get that much done but I get lots of inspiration and patterns from the board. Now when I DO get to quilt, I think I do it better and am tackling projects that I didn't have the confidence to do before.

amma 07-14-2010 08:14 AM

It goes in spurts for me... days I can't quilt I spend more time here... days I quilt more, less time here LOL

b.zang 07-14-2010 08:16 AM

This site has kept me quilting. With no guild to belong to and feeling kind of like a lone wolf quilter, this forum has given me a group of fellow quilters who provide me with inspiration, ideas and motivation. My actual sewing machine time is irregular because of other life things happening, but I certainly THINK and TALK about quilting MORE!! Before joining here, I described myself as someone who has tried making a quilt or two, now I describe myself as a quilter.

quiltilicious 07-14-2010 08:39 AM

about the same. But don't ask me about my productivity at work!

Aunt Doggie 07-14-2010 08:41 AM

More! I have to get more done so I can show pictures!!
:lol:

franie 07-14-2010 08:43 AM

I am trying to not let the forum cut into sewing time. I love sharing and learning here though so much.

np3 07-14-2010 08:47 AM

I quilt much more. I am finding so many new ideas and tricks to use that I love quilting even more than I did before. My husband loves that I am starting to finish my projects! :thumbup:

Jim's Gem 07-14-2010 08:50 AM

I spend too much of my "quilting" time on here!!!

littlehud 07-14-2010 11:57 AM

About the same. I just spend a lot of time here too. A LOT OF TIME. :lol: :lol: :lol:

ann clare 07-14-2010 12:52 PM

Less because I'm on here. But I have lots and lots of ideas. Also do not buy as many magazines.

JEM65 07-14-2010 01:07 PM

I am definitley quilting less since I fopund this board! LOL! I am continuously amazed by the talent that is shown on here. The members of this board are amazing - kind, helpful, and caring. At least I'm spending my time well!

mlaceruby 07-14-2010 01:08 PM

sewing the same amt but less time for other things
no time for TV!

Juliebelle 07-14-2010 01:56 PM

I am learning so much but still not quilting as much as I would like too

firecrackerpam 07-14-2010 02:24 PM

I have learned alot from lurking on this site the last few months and following the threads. It has really helped to see how all of you do different techniques and the helpful hints. I don't think that I spend less time quilting because of the site, but definitely more time looking at all the sites that you post as "finds" to view!!

IrishNY 07-14-2010 05:50 PM

I think about quilting more but probably actually quilt less. But maybe not - you guys inspire me.

Kas 07-14-2010 05:58 PM

About the same, but I feel guiltier about not getting it done!
