Go Grandma...Go Grandma...Go Grandma!!! I teach kids with Specific Learning Disabilities and many of them have ADD (so do I and so does at least one of my daughters). Kids with ADD will often find one thing to focus on - like the TV - and not even know anyone else is in the room. I'm glad that you gave her something good to focus on. And I agree, you have given her something to boost her self esteem. I'm looking forward to seeing her quilt this summer too - she is making one yes? She MUST!

How very clever to find a way for Amanda to help you. Isn't it wonderful being a grandma with time and patience to teach the grandchildren sewing skills to bring a lifetime of pleasure. Amanda's results are colorful and pleasing to the eye. Thanks for sharing the pattern. I bet you both can hardly wait for summer vacation.

You gave Amamda a life long gift. First gift is your love next is allowing her to do something on her own. ADD persons need to know that they can accomplish a job on their own without being told what they did wrong.
ADD people are very creative, they can see beauty beyond others.
You are wonderful Grandmother.

My son has ADD and he is a talented writer at an advertising agency. He is one of the most creative people I have ever known as well as one of the most appreciative and sweetest. The trick is finding what they love and to focus on it. Love the pillowcases. Beautiful!!
