Looking for opinions :)
Hello, Quilters!
A bit about myself - I live on an acreage in rural Saskatchewan, Canada, with a petting zoo worth of assorted critters, my husband, and my son. My main hobbies are photography, crafting, reading, canning, and gardening.
I am not a quilter, myself, but I am looking for quilters' opinions. I like to draw and craft, and have done up some fabric designs that I am thinking of trying to sell. My mom is a quilter, and she says she loves them, but...she's my mom. She has to love my stuff
Anyhow, before I get too invested in the whole idea, I thought I'd try running it by some quilters who can give me an unbiased opinion. Is there an appropriate area of the forum for posting stuff like that?
Thanks so much!

Welcome to the board. I grew up on a farm, so I identify with that part of your life. Mine also included gardening and canning. My mom was not a crafter - hated sewing - but I enjoyed sewing long ago and have gotten into quilting in the past several years. This is probably something I inherited from my grandmothers. I have no idea about fabric designs and how to sell them!
