There have been similar articles recently in the Daily Telegraph as well. I am pleased as an English quilter that the profile of quilting is being raised in my country - not only as an art form but as therapy too! It certainly keeps me sane - ish! LOL

I have recommended quilting for a life improvement to a number of people and my patchwork class members would definitely agree. Since taking up quilting, over 6 years ago, my health has improved enormously, once a chronic Asthmatic on steroids and other horrible medication I now haven't had to take any for over a year! My asthma was very stress related and quilting cures stress as I am sure you all agree, also it it very good exercise for your eyes :shock: I haven't had to have my glasses changed for 3 years now and I recently saw a eye specialist and agreed that the exercise you give your eyes with something like quilting can really improve your eyesight.
All in all I would say that quilting is definitely good for your health.
