I have always felt like the "odd" one, that I really don't fit in with people. All it takes is for me to set a few pins or sew a few seams, or even just look at my fabric and I feel an instant wave of comfort wash over me, similar to how I feel when I think about my kids and grandson (most of the time, lol). It's my peace. Sometimes I even carry a square or two in my purse when I'm feeling blue. Perks me right up! I go to sleep thinking of quilts and try to sew a little each day.
This board has also done wonders for me as far as "talking" to people out there. I feel like I can be myself, for the first time in a very long time.
