Rachel – My 13 year old is enjoying sewing, although she doesn’t do it very often. She enjoys the crafty side of sewing and last year made a 16 inch tall fabric doll with clothes for a school reading project. It was actually pretty amazing!
I’m sorry my site wasn’t working correctly for you yesterday and I do appreciate you letting me know. I was so busy restoring a computer yesterday that I never got online at all so was totally unaware. It is loading okay now, at least for me, so I hope whatever it was worked itself out.

Those quilts are gorgeous! I too come from a family of quilters! I hope my daughters enjoy sewing too!

P.S. Your blog is having some technical difficulties, only the bottom half of the window is visible. Email me if you want a screen shot. I know I’d want to be warned if my blog had a problem! I’ll come back and browse more later

Rosie – My favorite part of quilting is the beginning of the project, piecing all the fabric together. It’s like doing a puzzle and I love watching it all come together. Hope you enjoy it!

Buggys – I recently worked with my own daughter on a sewing project she did for school. It was amazing to watch her cut and stitch and create. I felt like I was passing along something important!

Leigh – Funny thing is, I didn’t really get into sewing this much until my daughter was older and I got tired of purchasing those cheap Halloween costumes. I got my 25 year old sewing machine out one day and made her a witches costume and the sewing bug took hold! I haven’t stopped since! (I even went out and bought a new machine!)

I have just decided that I want to give quilting a go and am hoping to get as good as these quilts show that your family have become!

It’s so true! The other day I gave Buggy (my grandaughter/ 5yo) a pair of pajamas that I just made for her. She asked me if my Mom taught me how to sew, then asked if I would teach her how to sew also. You know that brought a smile to my face! I really enjoyed the fact that she made those connections and wants to keep it going.
