Two of my friends and I teach 4-H quilting to 4 children ages 9-12. They have mastered stitching a straight line on paper, accurate 1/4" seam, hand stitching a binding, and making a 4-patch. We cut and trim all their fabrics as needed. Their use of a rotary cutter doesn't come until the 3rd or 4th year of quilting. They each have named their ripper, ie "Jack the Ripper" and "My BBF". Can't wait to see what they name the rotary cutter. We love what we do with these wonderful kids. Our 9 yr. old even won 3rd place in the Moda School Quilt Block Challenge sponsored by the Paducah Quilt Museum!!
