Parents today might consider that dangerous but not my disciplined victorian gran! I never stitched my fingers and sixty years later I still love sewing. I recently gave my 8 year old granddaughter a small (limited speed) machine for her birthday. Regretfully I live too far away to be able to teach her to use it, but I hope she will enjoy it and learn a skill that could stay with her for life and offer so many opportunities.

(although one of them made a quilt for his sister a few years ago) They REALLY want me to teach them to use a machine, and I have spent a tiny bit of time with them on that, but since we don't have anywhere to set up a machine dedicated to them, and I don't want to have to share mine with them, well - I haven't figured out how to proceed.... I should do that.<br />I bought this same machine last year for my daughter in law to learn to sew on, and I was quite pleased with it as a beginner machine, and she is tickled with her makes so far and hasn't had any machine troubles so I second your recommendation. <br />Happy sewing with kids ~ Tracythe mommahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06442659609532682275noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3651212972305104793.post-57993245220285492202015-10-08T11:31:31.862-04:002015-10-08T11:31:31.862-04:00That is great he wants to sew!

I kept my old machine for this purpose but mine don't seem to be too interested yet.Elshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05137720038459288453noreply@blogger.com
