we do lots of projects together,,,,, round robins, scrap swaps etc. and we laugh alot!
for those who dont have this priviledge, think about 'adopting' some senior quilters or beginner quilters! Its great fun and is a wonderful cure for cabin fever!

I used to quilt with my mother. It is a nice memory now.

I quilt every Thursday with my sister-in-law and my aunt. We are joined by 7 other dear friends. We have lunch (either provided by the hostess or brown bag it) and then quilt, knit, crochet, or whatever strikes our fancy at the time. We rotate weekly to each others homes. This is a fellowship that each of us values very much.
