Quilting with a 4 year old
While I'm staying with my daughter for a couple of weeks my 4 year old granddaughter has been helping me make a quilt. It's an easy sew pattern I kitted up before I left home using plain pastels and white fabric. She's been helping me choose which colors to sew together and which color to put on top as I sew them together. This morning when I asked what we should do she said we needed to sew our quilt. She's been having a lot of fun playing with the fabric patches. The fabric has wrinkled and frayed a bit but we'll just "make it work," to quote Tim Gunn. This quilt will be a great memory of the time we spent together. It was originally intended as a gift but I don't know if I'll want to part with it.
