I am 63, my mother quilted and as a widow of one year, I need something creative, beautiful,& new to my experience to keep me in a good place. I read in Drs. office today that learning something new at any age keeps you in a more positive frame of mind and I certainly need that. I am excited to see where this can lead me. I also quilted in my youth with my Mom, but marriage family and career squeezed it out for a while. :o)
