Hi and welcome from Seattle, WA. I am sure with your many years of experience, you'll soon be "helping" us with ideas and suggestions. My hubby, too, is around 24/7 since I retired. He had retired three years ago, but I retired last September. I totally understand your need for a hobby.
I hope you enjoy this board as much as I do. If you have pictures of quilts you've made, we'd love to see them.
Give that baby some hugs for me!
