IBQLTN2 Posted July 20, 2017 Report Share Posted July 20, 2017 Grand daughters visiting from Atlanta and they wanted to learn to sew. I gave them each a block of the month from left over guild projects. They each made their blocks and chose a fabric for the border and backing. They quilted the block on the long arm and then stitched it together with the serger. So they learned to use 3 machines. We are working on dress patterns now.

Cagey Posted July 20, 2017 Report Share Posted July 20, 2017 Jeanne; They look like lovely young ladies. Great job teaching them how to use three new machines, and passing on the love for quilting. They have now each made a work of art. Great job, and thank you for sharing the wonder. Cagey Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

judyday Posted July 21, 2017 Report Share Posted July 21, 2017 You have given them a priceless gift. They have also given you one. They will probably not realize the value until they are fortunate enough to be grandmothers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
