Learning to Sew

She wanted to learn to sew. We put it on our list of things to do this summer. Since school is out, this was a great day to get started. She's making a whale (like the ones I made) for her brother. I don't think 6 is to early to start learning. I think I started to sew around the age of 3 or 4. But I started with embroidery. I remember my first project, an elephant on a tea towel. I think I still have it somewhere. I'm starting her on the machine. It takes a little practice to go slowly, but she's doing great.
