I quilt because I need absolutely no reason to do it. It's totally optional. It's an outlet for creativity or I need a gift or I'm just in the mood. But, most of all cuz I don't need a reason. :)

I quilt for gifts that are to be used every day. It is fun to do and I like to see the expression on their faces when they open up the quilts.Originally Posted by Wonnie
Just curious....how many of you quilt for fun, how many of you quilt for shows, how many of you quilt for pay, how many of you quilt for gifts and how many of you quilt for strictly utilitarian purposes (your new baby, your bed, your sofa, etc.)?

I quilt because it's fun! And the time spent in front of the sewing machine is therapy for me....a great stress reliever. I make quilts for my family, for me, for whoever wants one. Just keeping up with the grandkids keeps me busy (5 down 4 to go). I don't quilt to show, not that good.
