This quilt was made in the aftermath of hurricane Katrina. My niece and two nephews were living with us during that time and we had a lot of fun putting it together. I set up my extra machine and while the 2 oldest sewed, the youngest chose scraps and fabrics from the stash and attempted to iron. I supervised, pinned, cut, and ran the iron. I also did the quilting. They were thrilled and so happy to have a part in helping others. I think we got it done from start to finish in 2 or 3 days.

That is an experience the kids will never forget and maybe inspire one or more to become stitchers. Good job kids & auntie!
