This sounds great! My boys are going to Africa for the whole summer, so I'm trying to pack in the fun and bonding now.

That's awesome! Can't wait to see the finished quilt. I really like the brown fabric in the second block!

A memory and a treasure do not have to be perfect to become a beautiful moment of a lifetime.
Looks great!

Great project - and even though you said you're not thrilled about the colors, this quilt in any colors will be a special memory-maker for your sons. Terrific idea - may have to copy this with my grandsons.

I taught my boys to sew too - never thought of having them quilt - if they can manage a sewing machine they can manage OTHER power tools.

Great that you are doing this with your boys. I loved teaching my niece and nephew to sew and they loved learning. It will be a treasured memory. If you want to PM me, I would be happy to send you some fabric....
