I am the same way, I use to sew all my summer clothes when I was a teen.Had boys not fun to sew for and quit sewing all together.Took up quilting 15 years ago.Two weeks ago became irratated with trying to find blouses that weren't for a teen I bought a simple pattern bought some Blank quilting fabric washed it and made a beautiful blouse and I have scraps to make a quilt.Just like the old timers did it!
