there is so much more to do along with quilting.
My quilting friends do more then quilting. That's silly to think quilt friends only quilt together. We have season passes to the art center, go to all the broadway shows that come to town, take trips to museums, go to dinner theaters, go to clothes fittings/shopping. We do volunteer work and sponsor charity events for local groups. I choose to do non quilt activities with other quilters. We understand when a trip to a political benefit may take a detour when we see a quilt shop sign.
