I really can relate to a lot of what you are saying. My best friend is out in MO, and I'm in NY. Neither of us has much time to quilt, but if we were closer, we would make the time to hang together, unwind, and share our crafts. I don't have anyone here to share my love of quilting, and I have tried to get others to share my love, but it hasn't worked. I'm even willng to set them up with everything, and teach. No dice... I have a car, but don't really have time to spend hours out. Is there a solution? You bet!!!!.. Don't be down!!!! Mee up with your friend, and daughter inlaws as often asyou can, but there are wonderful friends you will meet on the QB, and you can spend days with everyone virtual quilting.. There are members that would love to share what is going on in your quilting life. I have a friend in MI that I have never met, but we exchange fabric, advise, and good will.. We have never met, but that hasn't stopped out friendship. We are able to laugh at the stupid things we do, etc.
