It seems most adult students are women. I put it down to child rearing. Women are so ready to come back to themselves, to find themselves and express themselves...it's great. And they get a lot of wisdom on the way. So cool! It seems most adult students are women. I put it down to child rearing.

I have had a painting group for about 25 years. Unfortunately it has more or less been meeting without me over the last few years but amazing friendships and bonds have been formed. I am back in the fold now that my schedule once again allows. I was their teacher for about 15 years, then we just all started to meet at each other's houses, bring our lunches, have tea and paint and giggle. Most of the members are now in their 80's and we've lost a few. I'm the spring chicken of the bunch at 53! ah ladies….I always call my students ladies because it makes them smile and it makes me smile and we can all imagine that it is a special term of endearment and behavior.

She always refers to the ladies rather than the women, and she is quickly corrects anyone who asks about her quilt guild. It is a club--for ladies who love to quilt. I'm so glad you reconnected with your ladies. My mother-in-law, who turned 85 yesterday, has been a member of a quilt club for many years.
