Professor Jacqueline Atkinson, co-author of the study and a quilter herself for five decades, said: ‘Doing something that engages you and that you enjoy is key. As adults, we don’t often do enough that includes fun and play.
'Exploring creativity and what people do in their everyday lives, which they deem creative, may be an important avenue for wellbeing promoters."
Craft Scotland said interest in quilting amongst younger Scots was increasing but there was no measure for how many people take up the hobby individually or in clubs.
Emma Walker, chief executive of Craft Scotland, said the research backs up what they are seeing on the ground.
She said: 'We’ve definitely seen an increase in groups doing quilting socially but also individuals.
'There’s an emotive connection as well as financial need to recycle.
'Historically older groups of women did quilting but women in their early 20s are getting together and children's groups are also taking it up.
'People are investing in quality pieces of quilting, but also looking to make items themselves and re-use materials they have in their homes.
'I can only see the popularity increasing.'
