I'm so excited, my 6 year old is learning how to sew! She made her 1st quilt block and is super excited to make her 1st quilt like mommy! I hope she has the patience to finish it. I told her we could do 1 block per day (we are using 4 of the 5" charm squares to make a block) and then we will one day have a quilt. She said, "tomorrow I want to make at least 2!" She's a born quilter... Yay!

It's so funny you say that about the stash sharing because I was thinking the same thing! Ahhhhh! I'll just have to buy more :)

oma66 06-01-2011 06:51 AM

oh, I hope she caught the "quilting bug" and stays with it. Maybe you have a future designer in her. You have a beautiful family.

Dianemarie 06-01-2011 07:05 AM

Good Job -- I too am helping my neice 6yrs old learn to sew. We made a pillowcase and we just finished it and she said now we can make a quilt to match ! Her mom said anything she needs she will purchase and offered to take us to the fabric shop; I said NO thank you figuring we can work out of my stash for quit some time. She will learn about the fabric shop soon enough ! LOL
