Quilt-Making with Sis. D.

This past week, Sis. D. brought each girl a patch to decorate for the quilt she is making for someone special.  First, they drew a picture with crayons . . .

Next, they melted the wax into the fabric using an iron . . .

After that, the girls got to take turns sewing strips of the quilt together on the sewing machine.  Sis. D explained to them how precise you have to be when making a quilt, so the girls tried extra hard to do their best . . .

Thank you, Sis. D., for helping the girls do a service for someone else, learn something new, and have lots of fun!
