hobbies are good for your health
- but we already knew that

On Sunday, Alison of Little Island Quilting published a post entitled "Just Because". I left a comment about process v. product which led to Alison sending me this link from the Daily Mail.

It seems that researchers have caught up to what we crafters already know - hobbies are good for our health: they calm us, give us joy, encourage us to play and  promote our well-being in ways that "physical and outdoor activities could not"!

Long live creativity!
