Now that I'm 60-something, the gkids no longer wear Grammie's home made things so I started watching EB, F&P, Sewing with Nancy, Martha Pullen, anything I can to learn what I can about designing and making quilts. I live in Northern KY now so might just have to take a trip to Paducah one of these days!
I hope you enjoy your being tall. My daughter is 6' tall and is proud of it. Her daughter will be at least that tall. I just got back from Lithuania where there are very many tall women; and men, too.

And I always enjoyed watching EB on TV.
