I will put you and your family on my daily prayer list. I run a busy psychiatric unit; chaos is usually the rule of the day. It helps so much to come home to my machine, Phoebe, and all my fabric. I put all the frustrations and disappointments into piecing and stitching, turning out gifts for friends and family. Keep stitching!

Sewing is my creative outlet and how I stay sane somedays. I can go to the sewing room, close the door and just keep to myself. Some days, I may just sit and look at my stash or maybe take some out and handle it for awhile and imagine what I might do with it. At night when hubby is transfixed by the tube, I can sit and do hand work and not even hear the TV. I think most of us who quilt or have other interests have many reasons for doing so...all of them important.
