Steve, this is probably one of the few places where you can be you among a bunch of women who do not care what is between your legs, as you say. We are glad to have you. I am interested in male quilters because they usually do have a different color sense and seem to be more bold with their quilting choices. Women are usually taught from a young age the "rules" of sewing, color matching, and construction, so they are confined, so to speak, when they are designing a quilt. It takes a long time for those of us who were taught that way to break out of the confines of our discipline and just do it. Most men, on the other hand, do not have that to cope with from the beginning. They are more spontaneous. That is why men quilters fascinate me.
