If you look throughout history, most tailors and those sewing have been men. Heck, most of the men I know who quilt are amazing. Their minds work differently (no, not trying to be funny here) and they tend to be able to do new techniques and patterns that we gals never would have thought of. I sure wish my hubby wanted to quilt, not because I want to share my stash or anything but because I know he could come up with some amazing patterns for me. And most male quilters I know are married - to women. :wink:
