My sister and bigger nieces (10 & 12) came to see our new quilter. The younger of the two (10 yr old) is already thinking of what she could do with it. "So I could make a quilt top and you could finish it?" At Christmas, my brother and DSIL gave the girls a sewing machine and my mom and I gave them fabric and fat quarters and sewing baskets full of goodies. The younger niece got right into it and made a simple quilt while they were here during their Christmas break. The next generation of quilters is definitely in training!

How wonderful to pass on your love of quilting. You can see they are totally engaged with the process.

How wonderful! They are gonna make great quilters.

so nice that they can work with you. lots of bonding time there.

Congrats on your new quilt machine! It's wonderful how your family all coordinated gifts for your nieces last Christmas. It's wonderful when members of the younger generation are interested in carrying on our love of quilting.
