You can try when they get old enough, we have some wonderful male quilters/machine lovers here on the board. After all, it is made with a "machine" and that might interest a boy more than you think with a little "help" from grandmother.

This really touches my heart... my own 9 yr old granddaughter just loves to sew and quilt, with me, too!!
We have been doing this together for several yrs now ! I treasure every moment with her ! She is so interested
in learning, and is very good at it ! Kudos to you !
