Gearing up to start another one right now.Buying fabric is wonderful,choosing a pattern,cutting out,then piecing blocks is all good.Squaring up the blocks is my least fav part.It's not a hobby,but a part of my life.
Do you still like making quilts.....even tho it may have been a "few" yrs since you started?
I have only been quilting for about a year but I love it..For some reason touching the fabric, thinking of what I want to do and working on my quilts (and small items ) give me so much happiness..so soothing, comforting ..There are times, that I just touch my fabric and I get a feeling of calmness..
In our group of quilters, we make jokes about spreading our new purchases (and the old, also) on the floor and rolling around naked in them. Oh, the joy!!!
