My middle son is about to make a convertible top for his old MG he is restoring. I taught him how to sew way back. He sewed on patches for everyone when he was in the Army. My daughter CAN sew, but chooses not to. She says she doesn't need to because her mother does. The other two aren't and never have been interested. Grandkids can all sew, thanks to me. They haven't made quilts yet.
