Hey man. We can not let you think quilting is a sissy thing. You have a responsability for other men that quilt . So ,please if its only an eyeglass cae or a book cover. Make something simple but DO IT. We will be waiting for you. We all get down at times. Just pull on the boot straps. We will not give up on you . The world needs every man quilter we can get. Am sending you a warm hug. Feel better soon.
