My 9 yr old decided she wanted to make an apron. So last night we finished it together. I let her do most of the work, including the sewing. She is so happy with what she has achieved and is ready to go on to trying different things (possibly a bag so that she can organise her sewing stuff). Last night she said, “I like sewing, it is fun!”

Thanks for your comments. I read them out to my daughter and she is grinning her head off!

What a cute girl you’ve got! I remember I started sewing with my mother and it was one of my favorite activities! Now I sew a lot more than she does, but its still a hobby we love sharing!
