I started about 18 years ago, and I'm 56 now.. I'm having issues of having to work, and not having enough time to quilt.. I originally started with stain glass in a studio apartment, and didn't have enough room, and took up quilting.. Imagine working in a studio apt. quilting.. Ugghh I am now in a one bedroom, and use three machine regularly.. My stash is in plastic sweater boxes.. and I'm going to start two scrap quilts, as I have way too many scraps..
