His quilt is wonderful. I love the way he framed the panel and the colors he used. He's really good.

Is he available for color consultation when I get stumped?

I encouraged it. He did it all but the cutting. He is way to young to cut anything himself. He sewed all the pieces, designed it himself, picked out all the fabrics, and quilted it. I'm so proud of him. My friend saw it and she is buying it from him.
It is so satisfying to see you young people start sewing. Our quilt show has a category for young quilters.

He did a great job. His choices are great! My DMIL taught DH how to sew. Both of my sons took HOme Ec in highschool and say it was an easy credit that helped them in their single years. If he wants to help with anything around the house encourage it. My boys may have gone hungry or naked had they not learned how to cook and do laundry. Add laundry to the list when you need to wash material. Didn't mean to hijack your post but encourage all aspects of the quilt making!
