Sew, tell your DH that my son made his 1st quilt when he was 9 years old!! I also taught my great niece to quilt when she was 11..I will be 62 in a month..so guess I am an OLD lady-ish...my oldest daughter is 38 and she has been quilting for close to 20 years..so she was young when she started..I wish I had learned to quilt when I was 10!! I also crochet and I have a wood working shop..I make all kinds of wood craft!! crafty_linda_b
