Mom taught me embroidery (hucksack and iron on transfers on regular cotton), her mom taught needlepoint, showed me crochet but I learned that on my own later, neighbor taught me to knit. Never saw or knew anyone who quilt. Learned when I retired! I've taught my 7 yr old grandson and 9 year old granddaughter to knit and piece and longarm quilt, embroider on plastic mesh. The other 3 (ages 3,4,8) make stuffed toys (snakes are popular) with my sewing machine.
