Birds of a feather

Birds of a feather flock together, it is said. Do quilters meet to sew together, or talk? I've been to two meetings this week and got very little personal stitching done. I do feel better for attending -it's too easy to stay home and isolate myself from human contact. So the talking is more important than doing for myself. We actually worked on a group project today - making curtains for the 4H camp. With three machines, two irons and one rotary cutter going, and many hands working, we did complete eight pairs of curtains in four hours. I'm pretty tired but happy for having contributed my time to the guild's community project. I hope the next meeting will allow some time for me to try out the Guild's new Accuquilt dies and see if they make piecing quilts that much easier.
