Her first "practice" quilt
Awhile back I posted that my oldest daughter wanted me to
teach her how to sew and quilt.
I purchased a cheap sewing machine for her from WalMart and
gave her more than enough supplies to get her started. Yesterday
she even joined the QB.
This is a picture of Didrika2013 (my daughters QB name) first attempt
at making a "quilt" its to small to be a lap quilt. But she was to excited
to wait for "sewing lessons" and such also she wanted to get a "feel" for
the rotary cutter (never used one before).
This is what she made, of course I will give her kudos for trying and
not shying away from it. Sure looks better then the first attempt I did.

She used a purple and teal for the backing.

Certainly is better than my first attempt. It is lovely. She is on her way and I hope she continues quilting and finds joy is the creation and in giving quilts to others to bring them joy. Nothing better than that,is there?
