I quilt because I love the feel of fabric in my hands, I am NOT creative, but I can use a pattern, pre cuts, yardage and kits to produce something I think is beautiful. I'm not a perfectionist so there are some pretty major flaws in some quilts. I love giving them away and feel like I'm just plain selfish in my pursuit of fabric, kits and precuts that make me happy just having them. I have lots of stuff that I really plan to get to someday. I love it all. The cutting out, piecing (not so much the sandwiching). the quilting and sewing the binding by hand. I don't know why it gives me so much pleasure I just know it does. When I am in a slump and think I will never quilt again I feel empty and at loose ends. But a kit, precut, fabric or pattern always call me back. Thanks for asking!
