Actually, Pauline, my quilting 'daughter' is another member of the board, and not really a child. She asked for help with the technique, in a thread about 'adopting' quilters who want to learn parts of the quilting process. I asked for help with needle-turn applique, and my 'mom' is younger than I.
You are right, though. If I approach a new idea with the heart of a child, I find it easier to learn. Children seem so open to new ideas. Maybe that's why they learn so much in such a short time! :thumbup:
