I have a collection of old Quilter'sNewletter magazines. In one of the earlier ones there was a story about a prize-winning quilter in Kansas. He was a farmer, but had trained in college as an engineer (he was about 80). His wife quilted and one day he informed her that her points didn't match. She told him that if he could do better he should do it. He did and won prizes at the State Fair and elsewhere for many, many years.
