I think people have this picture in their heads of women sitting around a big frame handquilting. We have many diverse quilters! SO much fun to see the projects going on. I love it all...colors that don't call my name, patterns I would not try, BUT Seeing them and the creativity of my fellow quilters- OH MY I get so busy after show and tell! Oh! And I love the look I get from people when they see one of my quilts and get a load of my long arm! The jaw drops...I TOLD YOU I say. They don't listen...but a sewing machine/completed quilt/long arm speaks a 1000 words!
