Here is another passage introducing our Oldies and Newbies to sewing/quilting!!
In follow-up to our introduction of young sewers and quilters, meet Rachel, of Ontario who is the 7 year old granddaughter of Estella MacDonald. On their way to Florida in January (more Snowbirds!), they made a stop at Rachel's house for a visit. Estella set up her sewing machine, that she of course brings south with her, and showed Rachel a couple of things. Rachel then, sewed on her own. She did lettering and all. How great is that?
So last week on the phone, Rachel asked her Grandmother when she was coming again, so that they could sew.
You had best follow up on that Estella!!
As a sideline and addition to the above story, I thought I would show you the introduction of Annabelle, my 2 year old granddaughter to the exciting world of the sewing machine. 'Tis a super special bonding activity. We will see how the years progress ... as it is she loves my sewing room and the excitement of THE machine and I love to have her on my knee!!
What a cutie that Annabelle is, Kathy!You'll have her sewing before long!
