Ages
#12
I am 46 years old and have 14 children, ages 23 to 5 yrs old. I started quilting at about 38 and it had nothing to do with age. I am also a red belt in tae kwon do, two belts away from becoming a black belt, which I fully intent to make irregardless of age. LOL I do think some of us have more time for quilting as we be come empty nesters and retire.
I also second that many very young people, both male and female, are learning to quilt. My youngest one was 3 and she still quilts at thirteen.

I like to think of myself as a young 65 with a beautiful 26 yo GD who has recently caught the quilting bug along with her adorable 6 yo DD. They recently finished their first quilt, and have begun making Christmas gifts (placemats & wristlets).
I say you're never too young or too old to become a quilter!

I started quilting when i was only 25 and now i am a Gramma and love that too. Age is only a number that too many people get hung up on. I still feel about 30! My muscles sometimes remind me that i'm older now (55) I just take some tylenol and keep on going :lol:

I am 27 with 4 kids (also under the age of 12, or that is my oldest anyway). I think you are right there in the middle of ages to be a quilter. I started a year and a half ago and havent gotten too much done, but my 11 and almost 6 year old are just as into it as me. Tell your hubby that he's wrong. Thats like saying Fishing is only for Grampas LOL
