An Evening with the Quilters

Our church has a group of quilters, who have made 150 quilts for the Lutheran World Missions. Last evening 4 of the children of the church (3 were mine) showed up to learn quilting from the quilters. They made four quilts for babies that will be finished and donated to another mission. It was really interesting and the children seemed to enjoy it. Every child had one adult to work with them. Here are some photos from last night.



The children with their respective adult helpers (my DD#3 is working with me and I am taking photos). My DH was the token male for the group. He actually enjoyed the evening. He worked with DD#1 and he said that he actually enjoyed the time. My DD#2 worked with one of our neighbors and quilter. She is a certified teacher. She said working with each child individually would be best. The other little girl and her mother are members of our church. This was their girls night event. These are the girls and the quilters with their quilts all tacked down and ready to be finished.


Also, yesterday, my DD#3 finally got to ride her own 2 wheel (with training wheels) bike. She was so proud of herself. DD#2 had a friend over (I have started watching her friend on Friday's to help out his family). They had a blast.

Have a good weekend.

  1. The quilts are amazing. And it is so wonderful that you take the time to introduce the next generation to this craft.
