Let's see, my mom was quilting before I was born and stopped when I was in 3rd grade because she didn't have time, But I think I was in first or second grade when I was playing with some of her extra squares and hst and asked her if she could sew them into a doll quilt. She told me I could do it if I wanted and gave me a needle and thread. I don't think I ever finished it, I got about half of it done. But I started cross stitch in 10th grade with pillowcases that I found when cleaning out my grandma's closet. Then I got bored and started quilting right before senior year. It's been a little over a year now that I've been quilting, but I also know how to knit and crochet, but I don't do much of that anymore. I started a granny square afghan and stopped because I ran out of yarn. I haven't run out of material yet though!
