Our grandmothers were as modern as they could be for their time. If they could have had rotary cutters and Pfaffs I am sure they would have welcomed them. I believe nostalgia is fine, but my grandmothers did not live in times like ours with the level of demands on their time that most of us do today. Neither worked outside the home once they were married. I love the history of quilting and the tradition, but unless you put me on a deserted island somewhere i barely have time for the quick-cut methods available to me now to create quilts for charity or for kids and grandkids. Bring on the technology! Grandma agrees!
