    For there to be an average there has to be a high and a low. I am way above average on everything but the age. :lol:

    I definitely fit into this category. But last year I bought a long arm quilting machine. I have one room that is nothing but my sewing. I have 2 machines in this room along with my ironing board. I love sewing and quilting.

    check into getting all of your equipment and fabric insured by your insurance companies they will not replace unless you have proof of things.
