Seth apparently has talents that I didn't know existed. He and his other classmates have all made a quilt for themselves. The incredible part to me is that Seth arranged and sewed his by himself! Here he is modeling it for me:
I think his teacher is a miracle worker because I would never have guessed Seth could do this one-handed. I used to quilt and was mediocre at it two-handed. I have since decided that the sewing machine is not my idea of a relaxing hobby! So, curious as I was, I asked his teacher for details about how he was able to accomplish this. Her reply:"I was mean and made Seth use both hands. He used his left hand to feed the squares though and to keep them straight (and used the side of the sewing foot as his seam allowance guide) and then he used his right hand/fist to also help feed the squares through. There were a number of times that he had to go back and resew the seam when he got off track, but he did fix them. Lots of blood (mine when he ran over my fingertips-LOL), sweat (his), and barely any tears (just mine when I saw his completed quilt) -- I am so proud of him!"
Seth is very blessed with an awesome teacher!
Here are some closeups of the quilt:
