My 11 year old niece's quilt
 

A few weeks back I posted about my sister & her girls visiting during their spring break. My 5th grade niece decided she wanted to make a quilt, so we bought a bunch of fat quarters, some batting, and some yardage. On Good Friday, we had a sew-in. She sewed the entire quilt top, except for the last seam. The next day we loaded it on the long arm frame and while I quilted, she used the scraps to piece her sham and a throw pillow. We got it all quilted and bound just in time before they had to head for home.

I'm the goof ball in the second picture. My niece has the classic pose of holding her projects in front of her face. ;)

How lovely! Thanks for sharing.

My niece did all of the piecing, except the last seam on the quilt, when the chunks were getting really big. I did the quilting and binding and quick mending on the edge seams of her throw pillow. (1/4 seams didn't work so good for us there.) We were quite the team!

My sis tells me that it all went on my niece's bed as soon as they got home.

She did a great job, nice color placement. We need more up and coming quilters.

Hurray for all of you!!.

Great job! I love the bright colors and the movement in the black fabric.

She did a fantastic job! You're obviously a wonderful teacher!!!

She is a regular seamstress! Wow, She is very, very good at this quilting stuff. gotta love it.

So pretty. I like the design on the black fabric. Really makes it stand out.

Pretty colors! Great job!

I like. Love the fabrics and the color. She did great.

She made a beautiful quilt and accessories! You are obviously a very good and patient teacher! Kudos to you both!

What a beautiful quilt...I love the colors!

Great job--love the colors!!

Terrific colors.

She did a great job of all of her projects. Very pretty.

She did a great job on all her creations. I like the colors, and the patterns on the fabric. Great Sewing!

She did great ! and will treasure the memories for ever :) and next time she comes to visit .... better hide the stash or she might sneak it home with her LOL

She has good color taste.

This turned out to be a great quilt, thank you for letting us see it. I think your daughter is shy.lol

Good job. If she keeps quilting by the time she gets older she will be a real expert at it..

Nice job!!!

This is a great job for you guys. She did beautifully.

very pretty she did a nice job!!!

Wonderful job ladies,and a lovely quilt . Thanks for sharing.

Great Job!

The quilt, sham, and pillow are very pretty and colorful, and how great that a child that age is interested in quilting and sewing! Now that you have taken the time to help her make a quilt, she will likely move on and make another. Great job!

OHHHH, whee, wow, I love the colors and the black and white!

Love the colors that she used! The black and white print is a great contrast for the brights. Color placement is good, too.

Oh my. I love this quilt.What a fun quilt. She did such a good job. How proud she must be. Thank you for guiding her. She will remember this always. BrendaK

Great job young lady!!! I love the colors you chose :) You started something wonderful Auntie!

Love it! Great fabrics!

Love it! What a great way to spend spring break! She will cherish that memory forever.

It is a job well done! I, too, love how bright & modern the fabrics are! I think it's wonderful that you're working to bring the younger generation over to our team... LOL!

She will always have that memory of Aunt Christine...she really did a good job and probably will continue to sew! Good job!

What a lovely quilt, sham and pillow! Your niece is really talented! Lovely colours too! :thumbup:
