I just leaped over the 5-0 mark..a little, but I started quilting at 47...I told my Dad..he said..."why learn that, its an old lady thing and you aren't that old yet".. :roll:
I've always worked with my hands..crochet, knitting, cross-stitch, etc..since in my teens. I'm really glad to see folks younger than me to keep the craft alive...but its so much fun, I can't imagine it dying out!
