I agree as I no longer take classes some I would love but can no longer keep up and end up with nothing but another UFO. You are correct in saying quilting has changed as it is now a big money business. When I started patterns were free in the paper we used scissors and cardboard templates and it was fun fun even the quilt shows were very different and fun. People got together quilted,exchanged patterns and enjoyed the whole process now everything is how fast can I do this which to me is nothing more than computerized microwave quilting. I even use to teach classes in the fun days now if I want a class I go to you tube or craftsy and I still have a few friends where we can meet in homes for old fashioned fun
