    Had my granddaughter for spring break...she made a pillow for her Aunt in N.C. (her first star--Ohio star). Then we needed to have something quick and easy to make for her mama for Easter...so I taught her about whole cloth quilting and cross-hatch quilting; she got 2 pillows made and she was so happy she actually got 3 projects done in 2 days of quilting. She's 13 and loves to sew on my Janome 9000 (which she will inherit when she's 16). I'm a proud grammie!

    Very nice! Isn't it wonderful when the younger generations want to learn a craft!

    Your granddaughter is so very pretty and did a wonderful job!!! I wish I could get my 14 yr. old DD interested in sewing or quilting. My DGD who is 4, loves to help me, so maybe I will have a future quilter in her.

    She did a wonderful job on the pillows :thumbup: Please pass on to her our compliments :lol:

    She is very pretty, keep her interested in the quilting, it will keep her in the house and away from the boys :wink: LOL And how fun for her to be able to practice, learn and work on a a machine that will soon be hers :mrgreen:
