Isaiah's Quilt
Isaiah thinks its really neat mommy makes things. According to him my job description is mommy makes headbands lol. He also is a biggg fan of my quilts. He likes to help in the sewing room so I came up with an idea to let him make his own quilt. I was thinking and embroidery quilt but I do not thing him handling a needle at this point would be such a great idea lol I decided to let him go through his coloring books pick out what he likes and by using an iron transfer pen I am able to transfer the images to fabric and let him do paint embroidery. Paint embroidery is fun and neat for kids and he can color 12 blocks then I will put sashing in between and yarn tie so he can have it quick and he will have a complete quilt that he did all on his own. Pretty neat huh? If anyone would like to do this for their kiddo's I am using 12x12 inch blocks doing 4 rows of 3 and about 3-4 inches of sashing and possibly a border to make the quilt bigger.
