We are having a new Grandbaby in February ....so yesterday our 7 Grands were here all at the same time (part of them live 7 hours away, the others live 30 mins away) so they are not here together too often ...so they made the new baby a quilt ....it is made of flannel and I sewed two lines down and two across and the kids from 3 to 15 years old made the stitches on either side of the lines using embroidery floss in green, yellow, red, blue and orange ....they each choose the color they wanted so they can tell you what color they sewed with .... they are so proud of the quilt they made .... bopeep

Thank You All ...the kids Loved working on it ..... they worked on it for about two hours ... they put their heart and soul in it ..... I couldn't believe they stuck with it that long ... but I think they have a real since of pride knowing they did it all by themselves .... some of the stitches are longer they others ... but this was their first sewing project ... so I think that they did good .... and I had so much fun showing them how to do it ...It was a fun day that none of us will ever forget ... bopeep
