I have just started, what I mean is I'm learning as I go, and I'm 60, I can hardly believe I'm that age :D where have the years gone?! I've always sewn and was making tied baby guilts with flannel no frame. Our youngest grandson, age 2, I made him several so made a large quilted changing pad for our house,we watch him every afternoon, decided to try machine quilting. I made a fall tablerunner last week -- it's OK but I have enough to make another top so will try again. Now I've got the first under my belt :lol:

I am 69 . Mother of four,grand mother of 6, great grandmother of 2, I sew, knit, crochet, embroider. I live by myself and I quilt. I even follow quilting courses. My husband told me often that he loved me because I was old-fashioned. He didn't like my mess (sewing room) but he loved what was coming out of it. Have projects, enjoy what you are doing. A quilt is as good as an apple to keep the doctor away.!

I am 69 and probably one of the older ones here. I started quilting in 1980. My hubby loves to see me in my studio piecing a quilt top and sometimes comes in just to sit and chat while I am working away.

Well I'm 62 in body but only about 22 in mind and started quilting two years ago when I retired from work. Would have loved to have done it earlier but I didn't have either the time or the money, still, I'm making up for lost time now.

HeeHee, I am using my stash as lining for my coffin. So don't look for an estate sale of material. :lol: :lol: :lol: Just kidding!!!
