Mother-Daughter Sewing Team

Mother & DaughterThe last time I blogged about a mother and daughter sew-in, it was about my daughter.

Last week my mom came for a visit and this time I was the daughter! She needed to whip up a couple of quilted ditty bags to store some fishing poles for an upcoming trip.

(Notice our matching necklaces and bracelets – totally unplanned by the way – like mother/like daughter!!)

I was all too eager to help! After all, my mom taught me to sew, but I taught her to quilt.

Mother & GranddaughterI stipple quilted for her while she & my daughter did some on-line toy shopping.

Then it was my mom’s turn to take the quilted piece of novelty material..

It just dawned on me that now we have 3 generations of sewists in our family!

    You are so blessed to still have your Mom with you. I use to love to sew with my Mom. My oldest daughter is an avid quilter and we have such fun planning and making quilts. She lives 6 hours away so our time together is limited. Ruby
