Grams." I have had the wonderful experience of teaching my just twelve year old grandson to sew. And yes, these are not his colors, this is a bag he would never carry...and I probably would not use it either.....But, it is what was on hand, someone, a little girl might like this and it was a good beginning for sewing and matching up seams.I think that he did a fantastic job. The only thing I did was show him what to do and I did do the pressing..showing him the difference between pressing and ironing.
I also helped him to sew a pillow case..no pictures..but flannel with "POW and SMACK and SOCCER and FOOTBALL on it.
I am amazed at how well he did. do click on to see how wonderfully he did

it may not be your colours, but he did an excellent job!
Way to go, Grams!! You are a most excellent teacher.
Nice work!!!
I wish I were your grand daughter so I could sew since I was a little kid!
great job, Ellen. You know, excellent grandchildren are come from excellent grandparents too :)
good for you...i love me a guy who knows how to sew. it will serve him well. i regret not teaching my boys...now that they bring me all their alterations and mending. maybe it's not too late.
You get the Grandma of the Month award! I love that you have taken the time to show him how to sew. It looks like he did a fantastic job, but I'm not surprised with such a fabulous teacher. I'm tuning in to what Jacquie said and thinking this might be a good summer project for the boys.
Oh, and maybe he could give it to his mom for Mother's Day or something.
It is very sweet. What a good job!
