Sure is, and he may grow up to be a designer if he falls in love with fabrics and what can be made with them. Good for yu grandmother for showing him what it is all about.

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

They both look so cute sewing away! Wonderful for them both to be starting so young!

Love it!! My DGS and DGD both want to sew when they come over. (ages 8 and 6).

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!

Doesn't it just warm your heart to see them sewing?
