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!

Yes, this sounds right...are you sure that you weren't in my house when you got the statistics?

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>
