Howdy and welcome from Texas. Glad to have you with us. I think quilting should be just the trick for relaxing. Before I started quilting, I did a lot of needlepoint. My dh started needlepointing to relax. He even made a wall hanging for his office. He was quite proud to tell all the secretaries he'd made it himself. Of course, being Texas Tech grads, it was a TTU picture. Be sure and let us have a peek at your project(s).
