I am either 54 or 13.5 depending on who you talk to. My kids (28 & 29) like the 13.5 better because they have been joking for years that they are older than their mom. (in case you haven't figured it out I am a leap year baby and only age every 4 years so I will never get old)I started quilting 16 years ago and have loved every minute of it. I have 3 grandsons and the six year old likes to help pick out fabrics and help me with the foot on the sewing machine. I would never tell him that he is in the way because he likes to help me. It just means we sew really slowly when he helps out. He wants to make his own quilt now.
