My three oldest children learned to hand sew patches together and quilt pre-printed panels that they had sandwiched together when they were about 8, 9, and 11.
All three began their own disappearing nine patch quilt last winter. They got about 2/3's of the way through their tops when spring arrived and we put them away for other projects.
We will finish them this fall/winter! My boys especially love sewing....it's a machine!
