More fun than piano lessons...

Big Sis' quilt is done! I bound the two long sides and saved the short ones for her, which she completed with flying colors.

Neither girl had the patience to move onto garment sewing, so as a surprise, I made each girl pajama pants for her American Girl to match the backing and binding on their quilt. Both girls and dolls seem quite happy.

I started Little Sis on a quilt-as-you-go string doll quilt, which she took to pretty quickly. The fast results and unbridled play in my box of WOF scraps kept her attention for the entire session. She'll add her own quilting on top of it this Saturday.

Big Sister gave me the ultimate complement as she was leaving:  "This is WAY more fun than my piano lessons! And there's no recital!"
