I wrote Sew With Me with my two girls in mind. They aren't to the point of being able to sit down and complete a sewing project from start to finish 100% on their own which is why I named the book "Sew With Me". Many children, however, are ready to work independently and there are projects for everyone and every ability! I racked my brain finding ways to create projects that kids will actually WANT to make, and simplifying the process at the same time.
I wanted kids to see examples of sewing projects that were made by children their age and not just the example ones that I used in the step-by-step instructions. So I included a few shots of the sewing projects that my girls made! I wanted them to see that their stitches weren't perfect either, but the projects still turned out darling!
Sew With Me is available on Amazon!

I will go check this out. My 8 year old granddaughter has been sewing. Mostly on her own. I know she is learning some bad habits 🙁
We are currently making a quilt and it is a little stressful for me. I want her to be happy and enjoy the process but i also want her project to turn out! Maybe this will be the ticket. Thanks.

Hi Rhonda! Sewing with kids is definitely stressful. I'm the same way, it's easier for me to take over to make sure it turns out right. I hope she can find some simple projects to work on in the book! 🙂

Looking forward to this. I love sewing with my kids. We've been using Laurel Hoffman's guides in the past but I think this one would really compliment how we sew together.
