I also bought it just for fun. I make for family, friends, Project Linus and Quilts of Valor. I'm retired and don't want the pressure of quilting for others. I quilt Quilts of Valor that have been pieced by other people and sometimes, that's a challenge. I'm picky with my pressing, removing those "whiskers" of threads, flat borders, etc. I know people that quilt for money and they seem to do well. Mine is just for fun!
