You're...That is such an excellent story Amanda! You're right - you really can quilt anywhere! I have managed to quilt in many less than ideal situations and I made it work and I made many beautiful quilts with very limited resources. You just have to really WANT to do it, and you have to be fearless in the face of all those voices saying you can't do it. Thank you for sharing!Leahhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03674869334249298532noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7302142022228564326.post-16708842049277785202017-01-01T08:56:46.467-05:002017-01-01T08:56:46.467-05:00That is a wonderful word Suzy.

Switching a craft to a profession does change things so I'm glad you're going into it with your eyes open. Good luck!Leahhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03674869334249298532noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7302142022228564326.post-33764319188217943612016-12-31T21:22:43.205-05:002016-12-31T21:22:43.205-05:00My word this year is Positivity. Leah, I want to ...My word this year is Positivity. Leah, I want to thank you for giving me the courage to JUST GET STARTED. I was full of excuses as to why I couldn't achieve my quilting dreams...no time, no space, inadequate machine, blah, blah, blah. The real reason was fear...I was afraid to fail, afraid to try and screw up, afraid to invest time and effort in something that might not turn out perfect. I stumbled across your blog while I was researching longarm machines (while whining that I couldn't afford one!) and read your post about being able to quilt anywhere, even in your closet, and I got inspired! I got some folding tables, got my machine out, and started QUILTING. Thanks for all you do to inspire and motivate quilters. Keep on encouraging people! The most powerful words in the universe are "Yes I can!"
