I don't think it will die as an art. We have lots of young folks on here who are quilters, like you say, as young as 5 or 6. Crafts seem to be cyclical, but art is not. I have a 25 yo niece who has started sewing making pillow case dresses for her daughter. If (and I think she will) she asks me to help her learn to quilt, I will sooooo gladly do that. My 6 yo grandson likes to help me, so when he's a little older I think he may be interested (if his dad will keep out of it!). :-D :-D
