It takes me away like nothing else ever seems to! I have always loved fabric, so it works out great for me. It's my creative outlet, & I can do things on my machine that I can't do otherwise. I don't think it's a crazy question, but if someone doesn't quilt, they might, lol!....

Because my co-worker told me I could do it! lol
That is how I got started. From there I became addicted.
It is an outlet of my creativity, artistic ability, and great therapy.
It is also a hobby (that has become a business) that when I drop it or make a mistake it doesn't break! I used to do glass etching. Luckily I didn't break very many of the pieces I made but there is more of a call, request and use for quilts vs items that have been etched.
