I started making baby quilts about 20 years ago and selling them thru' a local craft shop. I lived in a cruise ship stop over town, so they never stayed on the shelf very long!!! I didn't count, but I am sure I sold over 30 that way. I had to put quilting on the back burner for a few years while I was being a single mom. My stock in trade is clothing designer/seamstress, so after sewing for 8-10 hours a day, usually 6 days a week, (gotta love being self employed!!! :( ), the last thing I wanted was to sew anything more. I started quilting again after moving to the US about 7 1/2 years ago. I work in a Credit Union now, so quilting is my therapy now. I know I am going to need LOTS of therapy....for many many years. :D
