Well, uh........how do I (should I?) respond to that?!
I've been in this field for over 30 years, during which time I've been blessed to meet, learn from, rub shoulders with some of the most well known names and skilled quilters.
I find I don't do things part way, just for fun, laid back and easy; nooooo, I have to go at them 150%, sometimes to the point of ridiculousness! It's either a passion or it's out of here for me. During the couple of times I've abandoned quilting for some other interest, I went at those with the same total immersion, and I consequently burned out. Quilting is the ONE thing I always have returned to. It feeds my soul, and because of that, I don't often do things I don't *want* to do now, because I don't want it to become a "got to". Got to's are no fun any more at my age!
Really, all that to say, Thank you, Joan!
