My car does, too.
My first quillow was at 10 and my first full-sized quilt was a courthouse steps when I was 24 or 25. My parents still have it.
If that brings down the average at all. ;)

57 going on 58 in less than 3 weeks. Started sewing at 12. My youngest son made his first quilt at 9 (he's now 23) and although my middle son, 28, does not quilt he does sew. Makes his own curtains, table runners and placemats. My DH used to say I hang with old ladies. Now I hang with both younger and older and my DH loves it when they come to sew because they bring food. They even put together a great basket of goodies for him for Christmas to show their appreciation. Tell your husband he needs to embrace all quilters both young and old.

Okay I will be 56 in July and I have been quilting since the big Y2K scare. Not that has anything to do with it just helps me remember when I finished my first quilt. I had been working by hand on a lap sized crazy quilt for two years by then. And I have a quote you might share with your husband on his sugar high from one diabetic to another...."I have PMS and a handgun. Any questions?" Tell him to be a good little Qubby and be supportive of his quilter or these crazy ladies from all over the globe are offering to visit him!!! LOL
