    Default Inspiring Granddaughter!
    A few days ago I got a picture of what my granddaughter (age 5) made out of colored paper and some scissors and glue: I at ance thought of a wonderful suggestion to do it in patchwork! And so her handicraft work turned into a place mat for her!

    That's so very, very special. She should be so proud of it & that it is her very own creation. That's a fantastic way to get the little ones interested in quilting. Seeing your very own creation put to fabric must be a real joy.

    I think you may have inspired her first! Her art already looks like a quilt to me. Either way, I’m sure she will be thrilled to use her one of a kind placemat.

    Hello, you are so right! I have 5 grandchildren aged 10 to 4 and they say that: if Oma can't repair it no one could!!!
    The most important things an Oma must have: hammar, nails, glue, tape... and the sewing machine!
