I am 47, and don't have a quilt yet, I will make one for me next year, after Christmas quilts are done for my family. so maybe after your done with your parents quilt, you could make one for you, like I am going to do, as buying is not a option for me. I would love to have one sooner, as I am cold all the time, and when I am cold I hurt more. But that just is not going to happen. God bless.
