    Look at her go! So sweet to see the younger generation sewing. Unfortunately, by the time you learn to thread a needle, then your eyes go!

    I must have looked like that when I learned how to sew on my grandmother's treadle. I was in 5th grade doing a 4-H project - the apron!

    So good to have young ones that want to learn to quilt or sew.
