We're moving right along! Julia has helped me sew a bit, iron, and organize. The blocks are all done & laid out, now to sew them all together! They ended up being 8.5" blocks. We have lots of half-square triangles left so we're going to come up with some sort of pieced border and maybe a matching pillow. I must say, having an eager 10 year old is helping me get this done much quicker than I normally would have!
Motivation!
Matching fabric for our half square triangles...we made 8 at a time.
Sewing! She learned about seam allowances and helped guide the fabric.
First sight at how to make a pinwheel!
Lots of half squares ready to iron
Making pinwheels (this is what we do with the ping pong table when dad isn't looking! LOL)
She made sure each pinwheel didn't have any repeat fabrics.
Pinwheels all sewn & squared, laying her design out! She's really excited about all this!
