I'm 58 and got interested in quilting 2 years ago. Before that I did a lot of counted cross stitch, crocheting, some sewing and for about 3 years running made all the Christmas tree ornaments for our (then) 12' tree. I'm Mom to three girls, 28, 26, 24, the oldest of whom lives with us (she's mentally handicapped and functions at about the 7 year old range and is very active!). My husband is a custom home builder, and we've moved about every year-year/half during our 29 year marriage. I'm ready to stop moving and settle down, but he's now talking about moving back to NC if our middle daughter moves there. I know I'd get a heck of a lot more quilting under my belt if I wasn't packing everything in boxes!
Sorry - must have been extra caffeine in that coffee cup!
