Oh I think there has been a huge resurgence in quilting. Many of us are sharing our love of quilting by sharing and teaching our children and grandchildren. The internet is a treasure trove of free quilt patterns, video tutorials and more, which is fueling the desire to learn to quilt or to improve, expand and try new techniques.
Yes technology keeps the kids busy, but sometimes they need to calm down, de-stress and relax by sitting at the sewing machine to quilt.
