236: Laurel's project


The girls I teach at church {Laurels} have wanted to learn how to make quilts so we have decided to have an ongoing quilt project in which we work on our own, personal quilts once a month. We introduced the project tonight by having them help tie, or in this case, sew on buttons to a baby quilt I made for our newest Laurel Advisor. I was a little shocked to find that many of these 16-18 year old girls didn't know how to sew a button! Where have we failed them? This is going to be a long project..hopefully our Seniors will finish before they graduate!
