    It seems like most quilters are married. Do you think quilters stay married more often than non quilters?

    Of course, it takes two incomes to support the fabric habit!

    I had never thought about this before but I guess that must be true. Just about all my quilting friends are either married or widowed.

    Maybe I'm the exception, but I've been divorced for 3 years. I was married for 9 years before that and a quilter for 8 of those years.
