we teach this yearly--which is how I got involved in quilting in 2010. It's always a lot of fun. We also do a "kid's camp" in June--a one day (9-3 latest) where kids come with an adult 'helper' and do at least one project and get a pizza lunch--all for free. The project is all free--our guild gets donations of fabric and all the child and helper need to bring is a machine and basic sewing supplies. We've had 5yr sitting on g-ma's lap, 14 yr sewing independently for the first time, boys and girls. It's a good start to becoming a sewer.

We also have a "kids corner" at the county fair one afternoon--again a totally free project (something simple and quick like a mug rug)and this time we bring in the machines and members help the kids. I'm so excited cause this year our kid's corner chair is 14yrs old!!
