I have had the luxury of not having to work for the past 5 years and have been totally absorbed with quilting for the last 3 years. In the past, I have tried many crafts and have quickly become bored and moved onto something new. This hasn't happened with quilting. The more I quilt, the more I love it! I usually sew at least 5 days a week. I am able to leave all my WIP's out so I can sit down and sew whenever I want. Quilting totally meets my creative needs and I am absolutely enthralled with it. Probably a good thing considering the accumulation of fabrics, tools and machines!
