*The average age of quilter is 62 years old.
I'm pushing this real hard, I just turned 58 years old.

*About 85 percent of quilters have a room dedicated to quilting activities at home.
Yes, I have a sewing room, opps I mean "Sewing Studio", Fons & Porter said if your machine sets out longer than 24 hours, the room is considered a "Studio"!

*On average, a quilter will have $8500.00 worth of tools and supplies for quilting.
I really, really hate to admit this, but....I believe if you count everything, sewing machines, serger, irons, rulers, mats, tables, files, storage racks, plastic boxes, pins, pencils, patterns, books, thread, scissors, pincushions, special lights, sewing chair, I could come up to this amount.
Please don't tell Hubby!!

*A quilter will also have $3700.00 invested in purchased fabric.
I take the 5th Amendment on this one!! MUM is the word!
