I can’t believe it was a year ago that that I last posted about their holiday projects. This time they made simplified versions of Ros’s Snap Easter Bags – no hand sewing, just machine sewing.
I let them chose their fabrics from my stash. Then I cut the fabrics and some felt for batting, spray basted the layers and they were ready to sew. Euan is a natural and created lovely curvy lines (deliberate!) in his quilting.
They both easily managed the quilting, sewing the sides with a straight stitch and finishing the seams with stitch #4. I did cut the metal tape measure and cover the ends with duck-tape. End result? Two very pleased grandchildren. We then made lots more for friends and other members of the family!!!
