What an amazing summer I've had. Let me tell you about my last Kids Camp. Today I'm sharing about the quilt camp at My Sewing Room this past week. A big thank you goes out to Dawn at My Sewing Room for cutting the kits for us. The fabric choices were fantastic! We started by organizing our 9 different fabrics into a pleasing arrangement and then sewed into a giant 9-patch block. Once sewn, we cut, rotated and re-sewed the block. Once all the blocks were sewn, they were trimmed and sewn into the quilts. The girls helped each other to pin baste the quilts together. And the machine quilting commenced! Friday morning we worked like made to trim the quilts and sew the binding on. Again, the bin

What an amazing summer I've had. Today I'm sharing Part 3 of my Summer Fun Kids Camps. The Week of July 22-26 I was up at Pinheads Quilting Company in Airdrie with 4 young quilters. We sewed and sewed and quilted and quilted! We even had some time to make snap bags which were a great hit. Our campers ranged in age from 6 to 10. It was fun to see how they got along and started chatting as the week went by. I chose a simple strip quilt pattern for this camp. Space was limited and I wanted to make sure the quilters went home with a finished quilt! It was all hands on deck as they helped each other pin baste their layers together. Did you take note of our super fancy green band-aids!!!! Pinning
