Default 4 yo finished her first quilt

with some help from Grammy of course. But I'm very proud of her. Several weeks ago I was trying to finish a quilt while DGD was visiting. Needing something to occupy her for 30 minutes, I gave her my scrap bin and told her to find some fabrics and put them on the design wall so I could see how she wanted to put them together. She made some great choices. I added 2 pieces to make it a rectangle. Each time she visited we sewed a few pieces together. Friday we sewed the last seam and put the backing on. It's only a little doll quilt, so I didn't think it needed batting, just a flannel back. We birthed it and used a wavy line grid for quilting. She loved using my little Brother machine with buttons to push. I'm so proud of her! Now she wants to sew Christmas presents.

Isn't it wonderful when young ones want to sew? She is so proud of what she made and the time with Grandma is priceless!
