I learned to quilt when I was 25. I am 54 now and continue to love it although I prefer a more contemporary style. I learned through my dear, dear friend and my two Mother-in-laws all of which had different styles. Just like their cooking. One was a southern style cook with a lot of comfort food, the other Mother-in-law loved to make gourmet food that tasted rich and full bodied and my dear friend she made things hot and spicy. I learned from my own Mother how to open a can and heat up but with their imput I feel I am a very well rounded cook as well as a quilter. Maybe we should get busy and teach our younger ladies the art of sewing and creating in all areas of life. Please tell your friend we are NOT OLD we are wiser and "well rounded" (no pun intended LOL).

Well, my 9-year-old daughter is learning how to sew/quilt right along with me - yes, she prefers blocks & rectangles with straight stitches, but I'm so glad we're sharing this hobby! How cool will it be for her when she's my age to say she's been quilting for 35+ years!!
