    I'm 62 alright. If you count quilting books as equiptment I,m there again, but I don't have anywhere near as much in cloth as that. I had a quilting room but there is a cat door to the outside in the window. We have so many cats they took it over. Now I sew in the office and cut on the kitchen table.

    Yes to all of it. I justify the expense by comparing it to the boat motors and fishing supplies my husband has! We're close!

    Here's how I stack up:
    Age: 39
    Space: I sew in the bedroom, cut at the kitchen table, my machine quilting frame sits in the livingroom and I store things everywhere!
    Notions: Over, way over! :oops:
    Fabric: Yep, over on that, too!

    I am younger than the average.
    I do not have a dedicated room for quilting, but I pretty much have the run of forty acres and access to most of a library at the Post.
    I am probably above average on the $$ of tools, especially if you consider magazines and books as part of that realm.
    I am waaaayyy ahead of the value of the fabric.
    I should probably apologize to someone, but I can't think of who that might be at the moment. <wave>
