They are 5, they need to be able to sew now! They were keen, after I tied the big plastic needles to the thread. These are going to be a purse and a handbag, apparently...

I, on the other hand was able to get my Modern Mini Challenge quilt finished. There is still something about it that I am just not sure about - it is frustrating me.
There is nothing I shouldn't like, I love all the fabrics and colours, it's just... different to my usual style, and I suppose that was the whole point. So I will keep looking at it for the next week, then let you and world see what you think. (That, or I'll whip up another one and forget all about it!).
Clever girls...I am guessing that is a 'few rows' not a 'few rows'?? :)
ReplyDeletehahahahahaha!!! Your leave your comment bit is hilarious!! and distracting...
ReplyDeleteYour girls are incredibly cute and I'm so glad it was that talk. They look like they're doing well, can't wait to see the purse and the handbag ;)
ack! i was really nervous that you had to have "that talk" with them. and soo happy that you had the "its about time you get to sewing talk" instead! can't wait to see your mini! i bet it is great!
ReplyDelete"the talk" you're hilarious!
ReplyDeleteThey'll want to borrow your sewing machine next!
ReplyDeleteAhh, that talk, it's so hard... You were nice though, I'm sure my mum made me use proper needles straight off when I was about 5 or 6, and they were bloody sharp!
ReplyDeleteI'm surprised at you, I thought you'd be keeping sewing to yourself! What if they like it? what if they start nicking your scraps? Are you ready to share?!
ReplyDeleteps. The mad one. LOL. Adorable!
What cuties.......wait until it's tie for the other talk -lol.
ReplyDeleteFunny Hadley! I've had the other talk with all three of mine and survived!
ReplyDeleteNone of mine are into sewing....mwahhahah I have my loot to myself!
Your girls are so cute they're almost edible! And don't you dare whip up another MMC! Get it up here so we can all see and admire it tell you what a fussy-bum you are!!! Jxo
ReplyDeleteIt's good to start them sewing from a young age. They may either fall in love with it or be interested for a short while and come back to it at a later age =D
ReplyDeleteThey are so cute. You had me giggling when I read that you had the talk..
ReplyDeleteMy goodness your girls are cute. When you said about 'the talk' I laughed. Have you seen the YouTube with the Brit mom who's daughter asks "mum, what's virgin mean". Google it, if not. Hysterical.
ReplyDeleteGood luck with your quilt. I'm sure it's stunning!
Your girls are adorable. Good to start them sewing early.
ReplyDeleteI totally messed up the quilting on my Modern Mini...I might either rip it out or forget the whole thing. :-(
I hope you get yours figured out.
oh what fun! Can't wait to see all the minis!
ReplyDeleteYay, another generation to the dark (and medium and light values) side!! My tip is to use double thread once they get to fabric, then they can't lose the needle!!!
ReplyDeleteWhat fun to have daughters you can share (make love) your obsession. Can`t wait to see your mini!!
ReplyDeleteYour girls at so cute! Are the plastic needles to stop them injuring their brother?;-)
ReplyDeleteHurry up and show us the Modern mini!
Beautiful girls - how does Mummy compete with such lovelies? I so remember 'the talk' 5 x times and they already knew it all!!!
ReplyDeleteGorgeous, gorgeous girls! Glad they enjoyed it! And please don't make give up on you mini - it's brilliant!
