That is teriffic to spend the time together and to give your daughter so much design input. Even better that you had all that fabric in your stash. Almost like making something out of nothing. You GO girls!
|
What a cutie pie.
And great idea for a quilt. |
How excited she looks! She will treasure this time with you ....
|
Praises to you for involving your daughter like this. I love to hear about stories of mothers/gmothers involving children into this art of quilting. Can't wait to see the finished product.
|
Looks like a plan!! Have fun!
|
What a beautiful picture of her.
|
The "designer" did a great job :thumbup: It's going to be a real winner!!
|
Beautiful daughter, will be a beautiful quilt!
|
She's so cute. Not only will she be a quilter one of these days but a great designer, too.
|
Can't wait to see the finished quilt. Your daughter did a great job designing it. Is she for hire? ha ha
|
There you go , another future quilter !
|
What a great adventure you and your daughter are embarking on. Have fun!!!
|
You have a talented quilter in the making.
|
The colors and fabrics look great. Have fun. There is a tutorial on cutting triangles that make, making pinwheels easier. :thumbup:[/quote]
Where is that tutorial? I'm used to making them with drawing the diagonal line, sewing 1/4" either side and cutting them apart. There is a way to do it with the tube but that leaves bias on the edges. Does anyone have experience with doing it that way and is there a problem with the bias? |
:thumbup: :D :thumbup: I'll be watching for updates!!!
|
she looks like the perfect little helper , thanks for sharing
|
I wish I had a helper! You have a great time with your daughter! Please keep us posted on your progress!

Darling daughter, nice that she is designing her own quilts so young, she did a great job. Can't wait to see the completed project.
|
Wow. I am a newbie -- and have learned something awesome!! I am gonna invest in graph paper, start thinking and designing, and then gather my fabrics. Looks so simple, so straight forward -- too bad I didn't think of it!!! Happy cutting, piecing, and all!!! :lol:
|
Beautiful little girl and she's starting out right, with quilts! Sweet, bright and perky one to snuggle under on cold days or nights. Great job!
|
that is so precious
|
Oh, that's going to be so much fun!! I can hardly wait until my DGD is old enough to design one as well and help with the process!
|
A new quilter always needs some encouragement. Your daughter looks like she has been a watcher and now is more than ready to be a doer. Her color sketch shows a good eye for design and color
|
Oh goodie another budding young quilter! I love the fabrics you've chosen. Looking forward to seeing it's progress :)
|
OH that's going to be pretty!!!!
|
Looks like it'll be an awesome quilt!
|
Awww how fun for you both!! She is a cutie :D:D:D
|
Wonderful!!!!!!!!!! What I look forward to most is making quilts with my grand daughters!!!!!!
|
Terrific! How lucky for both of you to get to work on this great project together. We'll be looking forward to seeing the finished project!!
|
That's going to be really pretty. She did a good job designing it.
|
Looking forward to pic as you go. Looks like a new quilter is born. She also is a good designer.
|
That is so nice. I am still waiting for my granddaughter to come so I can teach her to quilt. She got a new machine for Christmas but never has time to sew. She is so busy with her school activities, even on the weekend. Enjoy!!!!
|
Your daughter is lovely and it looks like her quilt will be too! So glad she's involved in its creation--lucky her and lucky you! Looking forward to pictures of her and the quilt when it's completed!

Your quilt is gonna turn out really nice! Love the colors she has chosen!
|
Hurray for Jayme, that's a great design, bet she'll appreciate the quilt even more for having participated in designing it!!
|
That is great, she is gonna love it especially since she got to choose colors and design.
Have you tried doing pinwheels the 'fast and easy way' tutorial on Youtube by Missouri Quilt Co? It is so easy and the points match up perfectly. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ekYpJzHoW6E Can't wait to see the finished quilt warm quilt hugs, sue in CA |
A quilter in the making, nice! Like all the bright colors.
|
Beautiful daughter, great design, beautiful fabrics. Future quilter for sure. Look forward to seeing your progress.

This would be a good one if your DD is going to help you. This is a great way to make pinwheels! I made a top (needs sandwiched) and told my sister about it and she has made a couple too. Have fun! |
That will be nice
