When that happened to me, I had to do something. I didn’t want to make quilts. So, I put out an appeal to a middle school near me. If anyone wanted free quilting lessons with fabrics, threads, etc supplied, contact me. I figured middle school kids would be interested more than high school kids. I managed to get a couple more sewing machines. I had 5 kids. They loved it. They learned a few quilt sewing basics as well as machine basics. I have a simple Christmas tree skirt pattern and they made them. I actually enjoyed it. Btw, I cut out the fabrics. I didn’t trust them with a rotary cutter.
