My handquilting needles are tiny. I might let her use a larger one for her first try. Her quilt is purple and white, so I found some purple embroidery floss. She's excited and knows, although this "thread" is way bigger than mommy's, she will still be quilting.
I love the quilt on that blog, which website is it from? I'd love to read more. And I wish someone had taught me to handquilt when I was that young! :)
