And it's certainly not the support I need to keep my buying habits at bay... that's enabling and there's enough of that here- I have to be strong not to buy.
So what are we? Need a name for it- fun filled group of people sharing a common interest in quilting and all the internet has to offer lumped in one website. Can there be one word for it????

I can relate to you. I am also disabled, short on quilting friends nearby, do not drive (age is creeping up). So my greatest pleasure is my quilting, beading, and watercoloring. I love this site and all of the friends on it.

The quiltingboard to me has been a level playing field.
A place where people listen to what I have to say and respond on my subject rather than interrupting me in the middle of a sentence and changing the topic to whatever they were thinking about at that moment in time.
A place where the people I exchange thoughts and information with have a common interest and seem to 'care' about what I have to say and think.

"I saw a cute idea for a quilt on, ... um, ... that quilting forum, you know, the board that I always like to read that has people from Everywhere on it, all skill levels, love to share and show."
When I say this, my fam knows what I'm talking about.
