I didn't start sewing until I was over 30. My girls start sewing when they can sit in my lap at the machine and keep their hands in their own laps.
So...about age two. :) Hehehe.....
Bailey started on the machine by herself at age six and she really enjoys sewing. She turned nine in February.
She made the pillow on the left for Aaron's mother for her birthday (sshhh, it is in the mail now) and the pillow on the right for me for Christmas.
Back side of the same pillows:
She has made others for family members as well.
..............................................................
She has an entrepreneurial mindset and is always trying to think of something she can do or make that can be sold. Some friends of our have a tiny consignment shop just for children to place their handmade goods to sell. She made a few bookmarks and has turned over a tiny profit from those.
She has not been convinced that folks would buy her pillows but I think she is wrong. She has decided to give it a whirl.
This is her first pillow that she is hopeful to sell.
Spring Pillow - $15
It measures about 15 inches X 15 inches.
It is lovely!
She plans to make more and we will post them here as she plans and completes them.
Her next pillow will be Prairie Coneflowers...
Send me an email if you are interested in purchasing a pillow from her:
