With a bit of help from mom. :wink: :D He done the top himself. Learned how to do a bobbin and thread the machine himself. I'm very proud of him. :D 8) It's going to my great-neice (his cousin) for Christmas.
I bought the kit from Joann's and desided that it needed more 'frill', so I got the eyelet lace to go on the edges. I learned a couple things, no more minkee, no more lace, no more kits! :lol:

After reading the post everyone made, I asked if he was ready for another. He said he didn't know. When I told him he could cut his own fabric and use the rotary cutter (he's dying too!), he said 'SURE!'. So I bought a klutz glove for him today. I'll have to see about getting some fabric he likes and pattern.

Thank you all for the praises. I know its one thing when it comes from Mom, its another when strangers tell you 'good job'. :thumbup:

GailG 10-25-2008 05:01 AM

Wow, Alex!! You did a great job on Jade's quilt. She will think that you're so special when she knows that you did it for her. And I think you're special too.

blahel 10-25-2008 05:59 PM

What a good job you did Alex! You should be so proud of yourself and with that - I can do anything attitude and not scared to try anything in life you will go far...keep it up!! It is so wonderful to see and YOU are one special guy and one that little Jade will look up to.
