This has been just great! I've really appreciated the wonderful responses from all you retirees! I have one grown son that is not dating.....so no grandchildren to dote over. THAT would be a dream to top quilting I would have to say. I like the sound of meeting new quilting friends at the LQS. I am headed towards following your lead and getting rid of my magazines....donating, or whatever.
You Quilting Board quilters are the best! That will be a joy....getting to post on the Quilting Board more frequently!
Thanks again for all the responses!
