Me too! It's so fun, I think, why didn't I start sooner! We're at the same point - I'm 42 and have finished one quilt and am working on my second. (Top finished, not quilted.) I love the interesting fabrics and angles you used in your quilt top!

Hey... I started in my 50's....and I so wish I had started sooner. Prior to quilting I was very crafty, artsie... oil painted, acrylics... crocheted... clay... but.. I love making something that my family/friends can cuddle up in.
