Very nice, Vanessa! I started later in life with quilting, too! I am 72 and have been sewing since I was nine. but quilting came to me in 2014. I have so many projects picked out!
Many of us come later to quilting as it is a very time consuming hobby. I made my first quilt top in 1965, right before my second child was born. It was another 45 years before I had the time to resume. I still have that first top, made with polyester fabrics and bonded lace.

Here is a picture of the afghan that I crocheted for my oldest daughter and her hubby for Christmas. I finished it before Thanksgiving but just remembered to take a picture today before I wrapped it. :)
