46 and been quilting for 6 years....old is a state of mind, and I don't think anyone on the board could possibly be old!

I promise not to share your age (he, he) but with the few thousand on our board.

I am 44.

You are?

I started quilting 2 months before my 70th birthday. I didn't want to wait until I was OLD to begin quilting (LOL)

Well, the calendar says I will be 70 in July, but I keep asking how my youngest son can be older than me; he turned 42 the end of March. I am fighting this old age thing all the way to the grave.

Are the quilting men included?That gets rid of his theory when I say that 4 of my quilting friends are guys and they are in their 30s except for one who is 48. I was 30 when I started quilting - 61 n0w.

I'm 56 now, but started quilting when I was about 8 years old. Just 'cause I'm "older" now, doesn't mean I have always been!

And I can speak for 3 "younger" quilters who are part of our little informal quilting group. The youngest is 8, the middle one is 12, and the oldest is in her mid-twenties.
