Default 4 yo finished her first quilt

with some help from Grammy of course. But I'm very proud of her. Several weeks ago I was trying to finish a quilt while DGD was visiting. Needing something to occupy her for 30 minutes, I gave her my scrap bin and told her to find some fabrics and put them on the design wall so I could see how she wanted to put them together. She made some great choices. I added 2 pieces to make it a rectangle. Each time she visited we sewed a few pieces together. Friday we sewed the last seam and put the backing on. It's only a little doll quilt, so I didn't think it needed batting, just a flannel back. We birthed it and used a wavy line grid for quilting. She loved using my little Brother machine with buttons to push. I'm so proud of her! Now she wants to sew Christmas presents.
