My path into quilting is a little different from what I've read before. Back in the early days of online quilting groups, I accidentally found myself in a quilting section on the old GEnie BBS. I was so impressed with the people there. They were such a caring and supportive group -- I tried to learn to quilt just so I could hang out with them. When GE sold the BBS and the group broke up, I didn't do any more with quilting until a couple of years ago.
Guess I was bitten by the bug way back then and incubation just took a while. Especially the fabric addiction... :lol:
