We all have
some sort of creativity built inside us. All we need to do is found an outlet
to bring that creativity to the fore. One activity that serves as a great
creative outlet is quilting. Those who have been into quilting know how it
positively impacts our emotional and physical well being. By engaging in
quilting, you are not only honoring an age old tradition but also expressing
yourself with the help of fabric and textile art. There are hand quilting designs for beginners so that
they can get started with quilting without experiencing much trouble.
Quilting
offers a lot of benefits to us. Let’s take a quick look at those benefits.
- We are living in times where everyone
is glued to their smartphones, TVs, laptops, and other electronic devices. It
is a good thing that technology has evolved to such great levels but being
glued to it 24*7 is not something that will benefit us. Quilting on the other
hand is an activity that helps you cut off for some time from the bombardment
of news, games, messages, videos, etc. that electronic gadgets throw at us.
- Quilting offers multitude of
opportunities to learn new techniques and methods. Once you get hold of these
methods, you develop a feeling of self-esteem and satisfaction. Your brain also
gets a good exercise as you have to focus on exact measurements, patterns’
placement, and other things.
- Once you get into quilting, you need some guidance. This is where your quilt group starts to form as you look for tips and guidance from experienced quilters. They could recommend for instance, the use of quilt marking pencils, which you did not know before. Once you start using it, you notice how beneficial it is. With quilting, you get form a new circle of friends who share the same passion as you.
