Hugh - who is 8 - finished his Bear's Paw block of the month this morning. He begged and begged me to do it instead of maths and reading this morning, so I relented. He's keen, and it's nice to see him so enthusiastic. He loves his colours in the Bear's Paw. He said they're 'cheerful'. He's all keen to start the Nine Patch, but we are out the door soon to Art class, so it will have to wait until another day to begin. Here is his completed Bear's Paw.
Your son was right....those colors are cheerful!! I love the colors and the block!!! It is so pretty!
Please tell hime I think he did a wonderful job!!!
I've enjoyed seeing what you all have been doing on the quilt! I think Rachel would really like the idea of a block a month. She's really into sewing, but it's not very often that I sit down and let her sew on the machine. Mostly she's relegated to hand sewing.
I've enjoyed all your updates this week -- sometimes I forget to check and then you've updated a lot! :) I can't seem to get your blog to "subscribe" on my blog feeder. So I ahve to remember to manually check. :) Got your email too -- will write soon -- you know how I am... :)
Welcome to my blog. I'm glad you dropped in. I'm a wife and mum to 3 children. We are blessed to live in the beautiful South Sea islands of New Zealand, and I love to write about our life and the things we do on our homestead of 10 acres, our adventures with animals and homeschooling, and the little things that touch my life and those around me. I hope you'll enjoy visiting.
