There is an article in a british daily paper extolling the virtues of quilting on your health. I am not good on transferring the name of websites, but if you google
DAILY MAIL ONLINE it will come up with the newspaper site, and then in the search box in the top right hand corner, just type in quilting and it should come up with the article. It was research done by the University of Glasgow. Give it a try.

I couldn't find it, sadly. When I went to Daily Mail online, there wasn't a search box! Never mind.

Thanks for the link. I found the article quite interesting. I like how it mentioned math and geometry as part of quilting. :)
