I like what you say here. I'm almost 56. I too am a late starter - still a newbie - only been quilting less than a year. My husband also thinks it makes me "an old lady" because I took up quilting. He also says dumb things when his sugar is low!! By the way, I am also in MD.

I'm pretty senior as years go, but refuse your husband's category of "old ladies." I'm 82, still teaching (adults only, these days!), and quilting as much as I can, between keeping the household together, playing tennis, piano, and gardening. Grateful for good genes, and recommend that we all "keep busy" and keep going!
