our quilt shop has sewing classes for children. Each is a project - I know a pillowcase is one project they do. Both my kids took a cooking class in high school, my son took small engine repair, but neither took a class that involved sewing. My daughter has no idea how to sew as I didn't start quilting until 2 years ago and she's nearly 30. I sewed as a teen and young adult, but by the time the kids came I had stopped. They thought anything that needed mending had to be taken to their grandmother's.
