Is this a future quilter?
Maureen Wozniak
shopping since hers is dead at the moment. Her 3-year-old daughter was with
us in the sewing room.
3 y.o. scribbled on the chalkboard for awhile and then started rootling
through my fat quarters. She'd pull them out of the box, look at them, and
set them aside. Every once in while she'd pull one out and say "Oh!". Then
she'd sigh and say "I looove this one." Those are the ones she'd on fold,
spread on the floor to lay on, wrap around her, drape of the back of the
chair, etc.
I think that she not only has excellent taste in fabric (the ones she
"loooved" were some of my favorites too) but she has a stash fondling
technique that can't be beat!

Sounds like a future quilter to me.

wondering if this is learned behaviour or instinctual.
Either way, it's a sweet story and I'll bet that girl will have a degree in
textile art when she grows up. Keep your eye on her.

know she is taken with fabric at such a young age, maybe you can
encourage her into sewing in a few years...Donna

You paint such a wonderful picture, Maureen. A future quilter indeed!
I think I need to try some of her fondling techniques. :-)

haven't been very interested in my quilting. Maybe, maybe I'll get to have
a great-grand who will looove. Thank you, Maureen. Polly

Her mama isn't a quilter and swears she can't sew a straight seam. Though
her mama is interested in making some pillows etc for the house. So who
knows?

Actually, I just finished one for her a couple of months ago. It's for the
wall in her big girl room.

Wow, she's only three years old, and she already has expert techniques
in
fabric-fondling AND fabric auditioning. She might have had a quilt
going in
a couple of hours!
But quite seriously, I think this little girl has artistic
inclination. I am saying
this because of a little neighbor girl I knew who was absolutely
fascinated
with colors. Instead of reading a storybook, she'd fan the pages and
say,
"Oh! Look at all the colors."
Yup, I see a textile artist also.
