Daddy got a cushion for Fathers day and her other gran got a lap quilt for her 80th birthday. She really enjoys 'helping to sew', cutting some fabric and snipping the threads and is very proud of the end results.Tina Shorthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08669614683805887204noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7593114644785141187.post-51358150630453098422014-02-06T11:11:22.479-07:002014-02-06T11:11:22.479-07:00Yeah.....result.

It's so fun to pass on the love for stitching to the littles.<br /><br />I know you're in Canada, but here in the US at Joanns, you can buy a big package of craft floss. It is about the same thickness and is wrapped the same way as your floss, but it doesn't separate into individual strands. Anyway, I get that for my girls to use on embroidery and to make friendship bracelets . . . then they're not tempted to use my well organized and more expensive floss ;)Sonia Bhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08801969399151136282noreply@blogger.com
