So..

Ive been asked to do some teaching... teach quilting :)

My 15 yr old niece (whom is homeschooled, and takes online courses), needs alittle more structure to her classes. So her Mom and I were talking about quilting, and I suggested I could teach her how to sew, and make a few projects.

So, today we are going to meet and discuss the goals. I know I will need to teach her how to sew on a machine and the parts (bobbins, threads, dials, foots, etc). And show her all the basic quilting tools of the trade, and a few techiniques :)

Some of the projects I plan to have her make are: pillowcase, tablerunner, wallhanging, and a lapquilt.

The plan is to meet weekly, and in the end -- should have 180 hours of stucture activity.

  2. What a lovely thing to do! I hope your niece appreciates it! I'd love to have a personal tutor teach me how to quilt.
