Quilting allows me to express my creativity. There is something about quilts that nurture the human spirit.

I get great satisfaction from the creating process.

It makes it possible for me to shower my family and friends with handmade gifts that you cannot purchase in any store. One of a kind gifts that are just for each one. I love the process and the smiles when one of these gifts is received by someone who does not sew or quilt. I love the creating and choosing specific fabrics for each person to keep them warm or decorate their home. I just plain love quilting!!

Home, warmth. love and inspiration put into a useable colorful proect we can enjoy for a long time.

There is something deeply home and hearth about making a quilt .. rather like a bird nesting. Sorry I can not explain myself better lol

Quilting is a form of therapy for me. I can lose myself in my quilting and for a while, all worries are gone. And it gives me a sense of accomplishment when I see a quilt finished.

I love all the responses too!! Once I tried to analyze my passion for making quilts. The whole process is delightful but the final result is my main attraction, so to speak. Sleeping under a quilt or knowing that someone I love is sleeping under one is the most wonderful feeling for me. I hope to make many quilts for those I love during my lifetime so they have a part of me with them long after I'm gone :)

Quilting is my way of expressing myself.I love to create my pieces of art.

Quilting allows me to be a bit of an artist with fabric and thread. I really love it. I look forward to it and thoroughly enjoy it. Another poster said it was a way to escape - and I agree.

It is my sanity!

Ditto!
