Great job, lovely quilt top...no shame in the fellas learning how to sew. My husband is Sicilian, works in heavy metal trades, but cooks and sews up a storm at home. He makes his pasta from scratch (no machine either) and it is so light and silky. He did all the mending for his kids when he was a single Dad and as I'm busy working or quilting, he even sews our curtains.

A great idea to work sewing/quilting into your curriculum. It's a great quilt and I am sure the recipient will be thrilled with it. I hope your son gets an A+ and a gold star from the teacher for this project. Also a very, very nice way to instill in him the need for charitable works. You are a great mom and teacher!

Nothing is better than giving of yourself --what a great way to teach him to sew. It won't be long and you will be competing with him for time at the sewing machine. Way to go Mom and son!
