A 3G Sewing Day :)

There was no school yesterday, so during nap time Grandma came up and we had a three generation sewing day!!!  So much fun!!!  


I can't explain how happy it makes me to see my daughter just soaking this quilting up like a sponge.  She is currently working on a little quilt for her sister's birthday and already has another 5 projects or so planned when she finishes this one.  (Yup, quilter all the way :)


I so look forward to years and years filled with more sewing days like this one!!  It truly is Happy Quilting!!!

  1. What a wonderful way to spend the day and time with family.
    I am hoping to get my daughter interested in quilting with me, though she is a lot older now.

  3. That looks like so much fun. Can't wait to have a 3G day with my daughter and grand children....strangely enough I think it is going to be my grandson who is the quilter. Last time I visited we were looking through my photos on my iPhone and he wanted to see all my quilt photos....had to love it!

  10. Thats so great! I have twin daughters who are 4, and a a boy who is one. Its such fun to sew with my girls. I sit them on my lap and they help guide the fabric. My one year old boy loves playing with the accessory box of my bernina. He must think that all the feet hanging are cars because he gets them out and runs them on the floor while making car noises. It such fun spending this time with my family. Love it!

  14. What an amazing blessing. I wish I had been able to learn to sew with my Grandma (she died of cancer when I was about 7 but we didn't live close and she had been sick for a while by then). I am looking forward to sharing the creative love with my daughter and my mother though (she does live close and we get to create together). How old was your daughter when she took to sewing, Amelia is almost 3 1/2 now.

  21. Have two older daughters in their 40's and I used to make all their clothing. Their grandmother always said when she washed their clothes, she knew they weren't going to fall apart. I gave the older one a Bernette sewing machine last year hoping she would learn to sew since she has a 6-year old daughter. The other one started making some Halloween costumes on a cheap machine she found at WalMart a few years ago so also I gave her a Bernette and she loves it. Now she's sewing up a storm. Has made draperies and even slipcovered some furniture. It's nice to see children learning things that you got so much enjoyment out of. I hope my oldest doesn't let her machine sit around in it's box and collect dust. I keep nudging her but she's always "too busy". That machine might still be in the box when her daughter gets old enough to learn how to use it. I surely hope not.
