37 YEARS

If you count the very first time I hand pieced little squares into a 9 patch when I was around 8 years old, It would be 66 years. I have made quilts off and on ever since. A lot the first 12 years of marriage and took a break and quiet a bit the last 12 years.

Been sewing for for 47 years, quilting for 40 years.

I started sewing about 50 years ago -- mostly clothes and home dec items. It's been in the last 10 years that I have gotten seriously into quilting. (Although I still buy more fabric than I actually utilize!)
