Yes, it was his idea to put the 3 crosses on his shirt and he also knew the sizes of each one that he wanted and their placement. Can you see my proud smile? LOL

Nanamoms, you will love sewing with them. I started both out with them standing in between my legs so they could operate the foot pedal. My hands were to the sides of theirs and the first thing we practice was stopping as soon as Grandma said, 'stop'. Then they learned pivoting using paper, a drawn line and no thread. Taylor now sews completely on his own and Ruby likes me to still sit with her, talking her through everything. Enjoy. If they 'want' to sew, they are ready!
