What a lovely way to spend an afternoon..... I love it when Emma shows an interest in sewing - she is only 9 but we have done a couple of small projects together... I just love the time shared. Also, what a fantastic sewing room. I love the way you have organised the threads on the walls!

hugs

Your daughter is doing a great job. Has she sewn much before?

How awesome that you can share your quilt passion with your daughter. I wish I had learned the joys of quilting at a younger age. Enjoy your time together making beautiful quilts. I love your studio-it looks well equiped and well organized.

You are so lucky, My daughter wasn't interested in sewing.
My Mom raised me to sew and loved it. My granddaughters 4 of them and 2 the 11 and 14 are sewing and love it. we have a great bonding time. My daughter just buys the fabric and gives me the list of what she wants. guess I am lucky I got 2 who are going to be quilters.
