Helping Youngsters Make a Quilting Christmas Gift
My daughter was involved with my sewing and quilting projects from a young age. She would stand at my sewing machine when she was three years old and pin fabrics together while I sewed.
“Sew mine, Mommy,” she’d say. So I’d sew where she pinned and she was happy with something for her imaginary world.
I also worked with my 4-H girls on sewing and quilting projects when Beth and her cousins were young. We got involved with many projects that resulted in gifts for grandmothers and moms.
So I related when I read Sarah Ann Smith’s blog entry, A little bit of art, as she helped her son make a fabric postcard gift for a friend. She has pictures of her card of a horse as well as her son’s.
Some projects for children:
*Pillows
*Potholders
*Aprons
*Fabric postcards
*Tote bags
*Doll or mini quilts
What projects have you been working on with your children?
