Just casually reading an article.... the statements and view were not brand new to me.... but somehow quite encouraging and refreshing.

Still browsing and Pinteresting.... yesterday.... this color scheme was outstanding to me.... my sense of color! I always say.... wow this would look good in fabric/art quilt!
The article I was reading further stated that "When you're happy and doing something you love, your brain gets saturated with dopamine and serotonin, otherwise known as happy chemicals-especially when you're doing "meaningful work" using your hands. According to Kelly Lambert, PhD and a member of the neuroscience department at Randolph-Macon College, quilting complements these conditions perfectly.
