I started learning to sew and quilt at the same time eleven months ago, at the age of 64. Couldn't use a sewing machine, couldn't even wind a bobbin!Started with a table runner and since then I've made 4 single bed quilts(one completely hand pieced and hand quilted), 3 lap quilts, 12 small table runners for friends, a queen sized quilt(just starting to hand quilt this), and am now working on a hand appliqued lap quilt. I became obsessed and it's the most fun I ever had, but I couldn't do it if I wasn't retired!
