Hi Mary and welcome from Texas. Glad you joined us. I have a grandson who is 3 1/2. Aren't grandkids the best. He likes to sit in my lap and "sew". He's helped me make a blanket and a quilt for him.

Well, it was nothing earth shattering that I told him about the cutting of the material, just showed him the “pattern” of one I was working on at the time and explained that a solid piece was not as pretty!! LOL He told me not to expect him to sew but he would help cut! And for 27 years he has kept his end of the deal! I draw on the wrong side and he cuts while watching TV. He will not try the rotary yet.
My granddaughter (3 1/2) wants to try to piece but she is a little young for that at this time. I will try to keep her interested which will not be hard as she tries to do everything someone else is doing. Sometimes I let her “help” me and she thinks that she is doing something great.
I think I will like it here. It seems really nice here. I will be here probably a lot since I found this site. At least until I have to go back to work. I had knee replacement in Sept. and didn’t do very well.

I like the answer you gave your hubby. since mine is always ya-ya-ing at me (thinks he's quite funny, he does), I probably would have said something like, "I handle fabric the same way I do men. I take what's there and improve on it!" :wink: btw, welcome from Florida 8)
