Jenna completed her Charm Pack quilt top!
By Wednesday she was comfortable putting the squares together and sewing the rows all by herself. She had to watch out for those sticky pins and I helped guide her to keep accurate quarter-inch seam allowances.
Each time she finished a row, it reminded me of my own excitement when I finished my first quilt.
The key to success I believe was choosing a pre-cut charm pack so we didn’t even have to worry about sharp rotary cutters or scissors. Jenna chose City Weekend by Oliver + S for her first masterpiece. Isn’t it beautiful?
Watch for part 2 of our mother/daughter sew-in where we’ll baste, quilt and bind!

Yep, she looks like me, right down to the stringy hair!! That’s why I cut mine. Now, if she would just let me cut hers…
Hi Christa. It’s so fun to see how your little girl has grown. She reminds me of you. Thanks for letting me know about yout blog. It is eye-candy!!! I was in Vegas for a day last week but could only just visit family. It would be fun to visit your sewing room–what a cool business presence you have created!! Bravo.
Jenna looks like such a big girl making her quilt all by herself! Yeah Jenna š
Yeah Jenna!!! You go girl! Beautiful job…love it!
I wish you could be our sewing teacher here! I bought Isabel a new sewing machine and I am struggling to be a good teacher š¦ Jenna will always remember this time with her mom! So cute.
Maybe she’ll become really good at her sewing just like her aunt š
Yay!! So cute!!!
