I am a member of a very small quilting group that meets once a month and sometimes we talk more than we sew and sometimes we actually get something accomplished. If I have to get some work done, I will not talk much. I find that I have to frog way too much if I do. I really prefer to sew at home where it's quiet and I can concentrate, and gab with the girls at our group meetings. That way I have something to bring for "show and tell" too.
