I am 69 . Mother of four,grand mother of 6, great grandmother of 2, I sew, knit, crochet, embroider. I live by myself and I quilt. I even follow quilting courses. My husband told me often that he loved me because I was old-fashioned. He didn't like my mess (sewing room) but he loved what was coming out of it. Have projects, enjoy what you are doing. A quilt is as good as an apple to keep the doctor away.!
