I just bet those young men would love to have a machine of their own........ They seem sewww engrossed in what they are working on. I think it is wonderful that you are teaching them to sew and it looks as though they are doing a wonderful job. What wonderful memories they are making for years to come. You might consider giving their mama a framed picture of them working on "HER QUILT"...sewww precious!!!

thanks for the hugs. They were excited when I told them that i was taking pictures so I could show my Quilting Friends their picture. Julian said -Your adult friends? somehow showing his picture to adults was important.

Well said! I love that you are taking pictures along the way! It means a lot to kids that other adults respect their work, besides grandma. Way to go!
