It's so great to see so many new ones joining the forum. What a great group of people. I am a recent widow in my 60's. Started quilting when retired and took to it like a duck to water. I think you either love it or don't care much for it. There are no fence sitters in the quilting world. I've asked ten different ladies to join the quilt class I was in and eight of them are crazy about quilting and two have fell by the wayside. One of them had a very crowded area to work in and the other moved out of the area to a very HOT place not conducive to warm quilts! What projects do people sew in HOT climates? Has anyone ever heard of a "summer" quiltl?
