started sewing at age 10... made first quilt at 18...with no help from Mom.... how did she do it???

I started sewing on my moms featherweight when I was 7 or 8. But didn't start quilting until age 50 when I lost my job and finaly had time.

14 ,LEARNED FROM MY GRANDMA.

29.

I started sewing at 14, and did not start trying to make quilts until after I had a stroke. It was great therapy to relearn to use my hands effectively. Every quilt I make is a celebration of my survival.

I was like 25? In college with 3 kids, pregnant with my 4th and made my first quilt for my daughter over spring break! but quilting in earnest didn't happen until about 5 years ago.

I was sewing as a kid, mainly to make my hand-me-down pants fit properly and other such clothing modifications. Bell bottom pants were most of what we could find at the thrift store, so I would convert them into tapered legs.

I was 39 when I made my first quilt. That was 12 years ago.

13 but didn't start really doing it till my twenties, so maybe for 10 years now off and on

I was 46. I was introduced to quilting while I was living in Spain in 2006, been obsessed ever since! :-D

Started my first quilt at 9...finnished at 11. My Grandmother quilted it. Ouilt was made from 6 inch blocks of what we called crimpoline (fortrell) patchs left over from those pant suits my Mom and her freinds made back in the 60's. LOL that top will last forever. The batting and the backing are in rough shape, but I still feel happy when I look at it.
