My Daughters Very first Quilt !
 
1 Attachment(s)
Not only is it her first quilt, it was the first time she had ever used a sewing machine. With that in mind we kept the design very simple. She was mastering a new skill as she created a quilt. She quilted it with Stitch in the ditch.

She asked this past summer for me to teach her how to quilt at 17. She was so excited when the last stitch was done, she wanted it washed & dried right away.

She has another pile of fabric she selected. I can't wait to see what she creates next.

Thanks for looking.

Wow!!!

She did a fabulous job !!!
You must be so proud!

We are seeing the beginning of a new quilter - and she's done a tremendous job of her first one, too! Can't wait to see the next one.....

That's a great quilt; you have every right to be proud of her!

It's fun to get the younger generation involved, and teach them a new skill. I tell my 'grands' that the more they know the more valuable they are to the world and, of course, to themselves.

She did great, I gave my grand daughter a sewing machine and some fabric squares for Christmas. She hurt her foot, and she can not use her foot for any thing for 6 more weeks. She turned 12 today. Hopefully she will be able to start to use it after the doctor give her the go ahead. I told her I would come over on a Saturday and show her how to
use the sewing machine.

Oh, my goodness...her first quilt, it is beautiful and what perfection. It is very impressive and I congratulate her and you as her teacher. I see a master quilter in the making.

Great job! I wish I had learned to quilt at her age. So glad to hear she has another one picked out to make.

Awesome job! Always great to have another quilter!

quiltingeileen 02-27-2013 09:10 AM

Great job! Love the fabrics. It's so nice you can both enjoy quilting together. I agree that it is so important to pass on what we love to the younger generation, so quilting continues to grow and is not lost.

debbiecharlie 02-27-2013 11:41 AM

It is awesome~!!! Great job and I know you are so proud!!!!!

I thought that too. I am lucky to match that well with piecing.

What a beautiful quilt and it is wonderful to have someone younger to take up the craft and keep the tradition going.

What a sense of accomplishment she must have to turn out something so pretty!

Make sure you let her know that you posted it and we are all very proud of her. Her quilt is wonderful and hopefully you have set the stage for many years of Mother/Daughter quilting.
