Recruitments open.......

Yesterday I recruited an apprentice aka niece.......it's our sewing time...... Not that she knew what she wanted to sew but it is our first real sewing session together.......
So I put her to work on laying out no 1 ruby red lips........
Then she started sewing it........
I love encouraging kids to sew....... Must show you the quilt fairy girls friend made at the start of the holidays......
I'm still working away on no 7 mystery box .... I know why I stopped it was with frustration at bias edges but it won't beat me this time......
Catch you later......

So good to have a keen Apprentice!

It's great to encourage the young ones - we need young ones to carry on the tradition - and to off load our stashes to!!!

They are so lucky to have somebody teach them how to use a sewing machine! I had to learn by trial and error and it took a very long time - I think it's why I don't find sewing as easy as others might!

It's always nice to teach the younger ones to sew. I'm glad its not too hot in the chook shed.
