WHAT!?! :shock: I've never heard such a thing before. Wow, how very strange. We have several men in our guild and I have to tell you, most of us women are highly impressed by you men quilters. Impressed and fascinated. :lol: You think differently and often times you will approach quiltmaking in a different way. I especially love the design factor. Men seem to make more interesting patterns, or maybe it's just that you think logically and it shows in your designs and I'm drawn to that aspect of it. Whatever it is, I certainly can't imagine any guy being turned away from our guild. Heck, I think one of our founding members was a man!
