I agree with Rosy! Most so called 'quilters' who act like that are really only wannabees. I personally have never meet a sister quilter that I haven't adored. I worked one summer at a church camp and every summer a quilt group from a neighboring state comes for a long weekend just to quilt together, share ideas and enjoy one anothers company. When i found out they were there I made a little visit to their area and wow! What a tremendous group of ladies!!!! They shared their work, their ideas, stories, and so much valuable info on quilting supplies etc. I left after spending only about an hour with so much support and info that i will never ever forget that wonderful group of quilting ladies. I just wiah I lived closer so I could join them. Anyone who is a real quilter knows that it takes multiple personalities and lifestyles to be able to do the work that quilting requires. Forget those ladies and remember the wonderful quilts you saw while there.
