Default Do not remember if I introduced myself

So...I will do it now or I should say will do again. I am a senior of soon to be 85 yrs. young. I used to do a lot of sewing, made all my 5 childrens clothing but just got started with quilting about a year ago. I have always wanted to make a quilt but never really sat down to learn. I have now made four quilts and intend to make many more. I love to sew but I only sew when I am not busy with playing cards (poker), on my computer, reading (especially on my IPAD), love traveling (cruises as well) I used to crochet, knit, counter cross stiching, candlewicked pillows, punch art and zipper art now I started taking up Round Dancing. After 67 years of pushing my husband around a dance floor and after his death I decided I would love to get into dancing again. My husband never learned or did not want to learn. But when I went on a cruise I cut in on a couple who just gliding around the dance floor (and I was getting jealous) and he just gave me some confidence . But that was only the beginning. This past New Years a young (about 35) yr old asked me to dance and I really got into it and we danced all night. Now I put my dancing shoes on and away I will go. Looking for a gentlemen my age to dance with the 35 year old gave me more confidence.
