New quilter

Love to see another generation continuing this craft. So many things in this world distract the kids from some of the most rewarding things, it is exciting to see a few see the fun and creativity and not the age of it.

My own were never interested in sewing and at that time I didn't quilt. Now my grands get to start when they are 7. They make their own pillowcases and feel so proud! When they are 9 they get to go to sewing camp for a week. Whenever they are here (by themselves) and want to sew we do it. I have project kits already made for them - includes pajamas, pillow cases and aprons. They sew I cut and press. We make a great team!

I used it to make a 1/4 inch seam allowance on the machine. It is easier to butt the fabric up to the blue tape rather than follow the edge of the foot. Blue tape isn't as sticky and doesn't leave stick when it is removed.
