Thread: My niece was visiting me from TN and I taught her how to Sew!

My Niece came to Ky on her spring break. I had bought her a sewing machine last year but it seems no one in her family knows how to sew ..so I had her for a whole week..taught her how to use her sewing machine..went fabric shopping...that was fun..and she made her first rag quilt. I had so much fun with her..( I had boys)....hope she remembers all I taught her and will continue to sew!

she loved making her first quilt!

sewing with her sewing machine! Now she knows how!

she went around the fabric store and took pictures of all the fabrics! ha

Looks like your neice had a blast! Sounds like great fun! You'll have to share the photo when her quilt's done!

This is her finished quilt...and a T she made and stuffed.

Looks like she had fun, maybe she'll take after you and learn how to quilt too.

What fun and a week she will remember forever ! :lol:

What great fun you both had!! I bet she'll be back wanting more lessons!

Looks like the two of you had a great time. I hope she goes home and starts another quilt!!!

That big smile says it all, a very pretty girl :D she did a great job

Catherine, what a great memory for you both. She has sewer's eyes to me, and she did great with the lap quilt, bet she does more.
She's going to go home, and wow, the family. Who knows? Maybe they will become quilters now :D. So glad you guys got pictures. Thanks for sharing this. I love stories with kids. :D

Wonderful memories for the both of you! And be sure and tell her how we all thought her quilt was beautiful!!! :-)
