    If I didn't quilt, I couldn't breathe! lol.
    I do them for all of those reasons you mentioned, plus it's a terrific creative outlet for me.

    For my own sanity and for utilitarian reasons. I work long hours in a very chaotic environment. When I get home I take great pleasure in the cutting and sewing. I would like to get paid but doubt that will ever happen.

    I sew for family and friends. I donate to our Church guild who gives to Children's Hospital and Ronald MacDonald House. I like useful quilts.

    Quilting has helped me in so many ways, it keeps my mind busy.After loosing or son 5 years ago, quilting has giving me peace of mind and strength to carry on. I'm so thankful for that,and having such wonderful friends.
