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? 
I'm weird too. I enjoy being with people, but as I grow older (51), I'm enjoying being alone more and more. I think it is because I put so much time into my children (5) that I longed for 'time alone' and finally I have a chance and really can't seem to get enough of it--as long as I can sew.
The thought of actually going to a guild meeting doesn't excite me at all.
