I am working with my grand daughter who is 10. She is making a quilt with scrapes of material and no color pattern. She is making it for herself and will be large enough for her cover up with. She is doing it in blocks of all sizes. I let her pick the colors and place them where she wants them. If the seams aren't straight, I help her and show her how to make them better. I always tell her, that everyone who makes quilts, makes mistakes and have to take seams out and do them over. I tell her she is doing a good job on her first quilt. It always bring a smile to her face to think I really like it.
