I’ve always been a very tactile person and quilting provides me abundant opportunities to touch beautiful fabrics. Then there is the camaraderie shared with my fellow quilters. Belonging to different quilting groups, discussing the enormous possibilities of quilt design, and sharing the details of our lives is another aspect that seems integral, for me at least, to my love of creating quilts.
