To me a degree meant a better paying job, not a personal achievement or goal.

Degrees don't always mean a better paying job. I was a teacher with a degree and three certifications in my field; and some of my friends with high school education made a whole lot more money than I did. I wouldn't have traded their job for mine. I had the "Mrs." degree and a "mom" degree and was happy in my job. It was a great job for a mom. I could go on, but you get my gist.

I didn't know you could be a Master Quilter. I am always learning new things and have so much left to learn. I guess if you earn that title, you know it all. Me? I am a Jak of all trades. Master of none. hehehe!!

...and then there are programs that offer certification in Master Quilting. Maybe she took one of those?
