I took my daughter to Sit n' Sew at the LQS today. She wanted to make a purse, so she picked out her fat quarters and I cut out her pieces. She controlled the foot pedal, helped pin and unpin the fabric, and helped guide the fabric.
She ended up using my Singer after metal pieces started falling out of her new Lil' Sew & Sew machine. I think that's going back to Santa's workshop.
She worked from 9:30 until noon. She was starting to get antsy the last hour, but she pulled through. Then she carried her leftover fabric home in her new purse. :)
We both had fun!
Notice, we had to bring our own little table and chair for her. Otherwise, she wouldn't have been able to reach her foot pedal.

What a good mommy you are. She will cherish the memory. She's a little doll.

This is SO cute! What a good mommy you are. :-)

Just look at that sweet little face! :D She looks so proud of her new purse!!! It's so wonderful that you are doing things like this with her. There will come a day when she will remind you of how special those times were that she spent with you. :wink:

I can see a future quilter. Nice job little one.

Yes. Static. She had first put the purse on her head to hide from the camera. See....

She's so beautiful and so proud of her bag! It's great you are teaching her young. Special memories for you both!

What a sweet, sweet smile. Mommy, you are truly a great role model to help her develop her skills at such an early age. I admire your patience. This little sweetie is a blessed little girl.
