Because of my mandatory 7th grade sewing class at Mulholland Junior High I'm one of the 35 million sewing hobbyists!

That's a great photo! I want to become a sewing hobbyist!
I have a super cool sewing machine which I pull out at random times... and I DO have one quilt that I started forever long ago (20 yrs ago!): City Blocks in burgundies and creams (which I might finish if I could remember how!)... and I sewed an awning for our patio this summer, so I guess that makes ME a sewing hobbyist too! (Unless there's a requirement for how OFTEN one must sew to be included in the category. ha.)
Wow, thanks for the link Ellen! I love those big spools of cotton thread, I use them for all my quilt piecing. You also have very good taste in red fabric, true, clear red.
