My sister and bigger nieces (10 & 12) came to see our new quilter. The younger of the two (10 yr old) is already thinking of what she could do with it. "So I could make a quilt top and you could finish it?" At Christmas, my brother and DSIL gave the girls a sewing machine and my mom and I gave them fabric and fat quarters and sewing baskets full of goodies. The younger niece got right into it and made a simple quilt while they were here during their Christmas break. The next generation of quilters is definitely in training!
