Truth is, except for a very few, we are all on a fixed income. Those of you who work only get so much on your paycheck. All of us are having to watch what we spend and our money buys less all the time. Even so, we are some of the most creative people that live. We'd all love to go to a quilt shop and buy whatever we wanted, but since that doesn't happen we look elsewhere.. Never fear, we'll all continue quilting one way or another.
