I am mediocre at painting with oil and slightly better with water color. Quiting is like painting with fabric and so much easier to get a REAL picture going that I can enjoy. I love fabric. I just wouldnt wear homemade skirts/blouses (no need blue jeans and tshirt girl here).. so what could I make....QUILTS. Do one your addicted. Lots of pride in the finishing of one and who couldnt use more of a self esteem boost?
