I enjoy this forum very much, though. I get great ideas here, and I love seeing other's projects. Are there other lone (and happy to be that way) quilters out there, or is it just me? 
Until Monday, I had been quilting by myself for over 20 years. On Monday I went to my first quilt meeting. It was okay. I think I can handle once a month. I love the quiet time when I am sewing. I turn on my music to something soothing and the hours melt away. I do like retreats where I can sew for days without having to cook or clean. I don't even mind that there are other people there. LOL
