Good for you! My mother is 81 and has been sewing since she was 5 years old. Her mother taught sewing for the Singer Company and made party dresses for the wealthier ladies in town. Well, my Mom got macular degeneration and is now legally blind. She is unable to read, but she still pieces quilt tops. We have a dear friend that quilts them for her at a reduced price. The quality of her work isn't what it used to be, but these later quilts are even more precious to us that the more perfect ones she made when she could see. I encourage everyone to keep doing what you love and when you can't do it anymore, love to do something else!
