Like anything else, it's a pastime for some, total obsession for others. I enjoy quilting and it is a moderate part of my total life. Used to belong to a local quilt guild. There were a couple of people who would turn out at least one king quilt a month and this was before long arm quilting. On one such occasion, the lady next to me made the snarky comment "I can only imagine what lousy housekeepers they must be". Thought that was rather mean spirited of her. Live and let live and if it brings you joy, then go for it.
