Caitlyn learns to sew

Caitlyn learns to sew - Caitlyn came to AZ for a week before school started. She wanted to learn to sew. We went to the local quilt store and she chose the beautiful puple, blue and white fabrics. Then the process began. We washed the fabrics, ironed them and learned to work with the rotarty cutter ( lots of oops- but we managed). Sewing 1/4" seams -some not so 1/4, but mostly they were. Caitlyn made great strides after 'getting the hang of it' and when I came home from work one day, she had already finished 2 complete rows and had them hanging on the design wall. We completely finished the quilt at the very last minute before she walked out the door to go home. I had a great time helping her and seeing her joy with the completed project.
