Not sure of the overall picture - but DH and I just got back from the Paducah Quilt Show and he and I were amazed at just how many quilters were there. I asked him what he thought that the average age of the quilters was and he said "72" and they were all from Iowa - I said "Iowa? How do you know they are all from Iowa?" and he said "because they are all corn fed" - meaning that they were a little on the heavy side - LOL Can you tell we raise cattle?
