I agree a LQS might be a way to connect with other quilters, at least that is how I was introduced to quilting and have made life long friends. I took a t-shirt class with some friends ( I was clueless)but went to every class and become hooked on quilting and none of my friends from the T-shirt class finished their quilt or come to classes). Since then, I have taken many classes, gone on shop hops, day trips and basically become very close to my quilting buddies. Don't give up...there are great people (quilters) who do not judge you for your age or talent.
