    Default My future quilters at work!

    This past week two of my grandchildren have been visiting. My grandson learned to completely thread 'his' (in the future when he is 10) Singer 401A vintage machine. He really wanted it to go home with him but he needs to learn a few more things and before it goes to his home.

    My granddaughter likes to be like Grandma and wear my glasses. Here she is also sewing barefooted, like Grandma. The last picture is of her hand sewing a little pillow that she sewed on my Singer 301A.

    Cute, cute, cute - kids and the products of their work! I hope they stay with sewing, but even if they don't, they'll always have the memories of time with grandma, as will you!

    What a lucky grandma you are to spend time with your beautiful grandchildren. And it's a bonus that they want to learn what you love!

    Thank you for all of your kind words. My heart is very sad since my home is empty with them gone. Hopefully, we will be together in a few months.

    You have very clever grandchildren! looks like they are on their way to creating many wonderful projects.
    You are giving them a gift that will last a lifetime...the gift of sewing and creating. Thanks for posting the great pictures.
