I just started my 9 year old granddaughter last week. She makde a flannel quilt for her doll(about 36x36). I used the Husky machine I take to class. It has a slow speed. I had 5 in squares cut . She sewed two then two , made rows, then sewed the rows. We cut backing, enveloped it. She turned it out, sewed in the ditch and then all around the edge. I was amazed she could follow the edge so well. She wound a bobbin after I showed her once. She is hooked. This week she is sewing strips together. I did the cutting and pressing!
