Welcome from the Florida Heartland. I consider 70 to be young. I am 83 years old and I am still taking classes and learning easier ways to quilt. Quilting is a great way to get your mind off of everyday problems. It has certainly helped me during this time of the virus. My husband and I were very active and now we go to the grocery store, and drive-through Walgreens for meds and use the bank drive-through. Quilting saves my sanity and gives me a purpose for each day. I think you will really enjoy this board and I hope you learn as much as I have from all of the fabulous quilters willing to help one another.
