My grandson made his first quit
 

[ATTACH=CONFIG]585925[/ATTACH]

My 8 year old grandson is visiting and wanted to make a quilt for his dog. I bought a charm pack of flannel squares and showed him how to sew them together. He made the seven rows and I sewed the rows together and finished it. He is very proud and excited to give it to Miley for Christmas.

What a wonderful experience for you both! He's a handsome young man!

what a great job he did

That's so great!

Watson

great for him!!!

What a great activity for you two to do together. And, his smile says it all.

I agree! The only sewing my grandson did was to try every one of the 100+ stitches my machine does! However he has helped a lot!
Really like the hand print hanging on the wall! Are those "family" hands?

absolute great! Hope while my oldest g-boy is living with other g-ma this coming semester that I manage to get him to spend a weekend and do some pillows--maybe suggest he make a quilt for his dog, too.

What a wonderful quilt for Miley. Your gradson did a fantastic job on it & I bet he's ready to make more. What a cute boy he is & looks so proud of his first quilt. Glad you had the time to teach him how to quilt & hopefully he will want to make more with you.

He's adorable and so is his quilt. You're a very lucky woman.

That is a christmas tree made from his hands at age 3.

He is adorable and he did an excellent job! You've made a wonderful memory for him. Love this story.

How Wonderful! And what a great smile on his face.

Awww, I love that. Especially that he wanted to make something for his dog :o

both are beautiful

and it was for his dog

What an adorable looking little boy! Look at that smile on his face! The quilt is great and it's fantastic he even wanted to try to make one. Great job!!

He is just the cutest young man and I love his proud smile! Great Job young man!

very nice for him to learn while visiting with you, great job

Very nice quilt and such a handsome little guy. He looks so proud of his blanket he made for his pet. What a nice memory you two made together.

Good for him!! Great job!

He is so cute and please tell him what a great job he did!

You two make a great team! He's a cutie!

He looks proud of it--as well he should be!

Wow he did a fine job

Such a nice quilt for his dog. Handsome grandson too.

What a cutie pie...and what a wonderful holiday memory for you. I love to hear when kids are excited about sewing and crafts.

I hope the joy he shows today continues and he will continue to enjoy quilting with you. Nice quilt for his first quilt. Using precuts is such a great idea-cuts out lots of time consuming things and gets right to the sewing.

What a wonderful memory, he is very cute!

What good teamwork! More lessons than just how to sew are in this quilt! Merry Christmas to you and yours...and Miley!

You and your grandson did a wonderful job...I'm sure his dog will love it. On another note...I had a chair like the one in the photo for years (different fabric), and then decided I needed something new. Wish I had my chair back and if I ever find another one I'm buying it and will have it re-dome professionally. I miss my comfortable chair.

Look at that proud look on his sweet face!!!!!! Oh, what a wonderful experience!
I taught all 3 of my boys how to sew. I know people thought I was crazy but boys love machines, right?
They had fun and we made special memories.
Not one of them has to ask his wife for help to mend :)

He did a nice job!!! Both he and the quilt are too cute!!!!

Love them both.....great job for his best friend..forever

How cute!!!!

Love the colors he used. That's terrific! Not just that he wanted to do something for his dog, but when he grows up, if he marries a lady who likes quilting, he will understand what goes into it.

Did a great job and it so wonderful to see young men quilting

Wow that is awesome and you can tell by the smile on his face how proud he is. And should be!!

Great quilt! Great kid!

great job, what a great beginning!
