dear all,
an acquaintance at church yesterday approached me about giving her 10 year old daughter "quilting" lessons. When I asked the girl did she want to learn how to hand quilt (piece) or machine quilt (piece) I quickly learned that "quilting" to her was anything that had to do with a needle/thread/yarn. I am not that good at crocheting and don't knit.
She is a bright child, but not sure how long her attention span might be. I thought an easy plastic canvas project might be a good place to start. (dull needle and no hot iron LOL) Does anyone have any ideas? I don't think a tissue box would be "cute" enough.
If she does well with this, we might graduate to hand or machine piecing, but the hot iron with someone else's child makes me nervous.
thanks for your advice,
Rose
