I just told DH about this new swap that is going on and he tries to tell me I shouldn't because I never made anything with the first one.... all I could do was laugh. Not only did he not get that this could help me make a bigger one in the end, but it is really just about having the friendship of the board and having someone that I can talk about quilting with. My mother likes sewing and wants to learn quilting, but she wont be moving here until late Feb and even then I don't know if I could do quilting if I didn't have all of you wonderful quilting buddies to push me along when I need it. I tell ya, sometime the sig. others just don't get it :-)
