People are entitled to their opinions but that doesn't mean anyone has to stand there and listen to their self rightous, biased ideas. Quilting should be enjoyment. If there are things you don't do because you aren't fond of the process, not particularly good at, don't have the equipment or expertise, or are physically unable to do.....no one has the right to call you less of a quilter (or person). Glad you picked up your "toys" and went home.
