fun and relaxation, once in a while presents, but I am slow so its hard to do presents and get them done on time
|
I quilt for the good of my heart and soul and people around me benefit from the results. There is something very calming about spending several hours piecing together a quilt. Sure there are times I have to rip something out but that is all apart of the learning experience.
|
How could you ever possibly quilt for profit? I don't know about the rest of you but hours just disappear when I'm quilting. I figure I would be worth maybe 10 cents an hour.
Seriously, quilting is about having fun......and mostly making things people would like |
Definitly for fun. I want to enjoy quilting and I am afraid if it becomes a job, it want be fun and relaxing anymore.
|
I do it for fun and for gifts,and just love the hobby.
|
All of the above fit my quilting.

He calls quilting my brain cleanser - Don'cha just love it, I now have a valid medical excuse to quilt and buy fabric. Sons no longer ask me "Mom, where are you going to put more fabric?" LOL

For fun and for sale (baby quilts) as long as I get my fabric paid for and a little extra to start another one. Some for gifts and for charity to get rid of stash to justify buying more fabric. I don't intend to get rich with the baby quilts but love to put them together.

For fun, relaxation, and gifts for family. I have done one charity quilt.
|
I quilt as a hobby w/ my finished projects going to my famiy or other close relative.
