More from Kid's Camp!

 
 
Here are some great progress pics from this year's Kid's Camp! Piecing that star was no trouble for Lindsey! Love the graphic look this gray, yellow & white quilt has!

 

 
Karen's grandbabies made their Kid's Camp debut this year! Here's Ava working away and Miss Lisa helping Maddie! If you look hard enough, you can see Kaitlyn! Even the twin boys bellied up to the sewing machine tables and made some awesome quilts, bags & pillowcases of their own!

 

 
Emily's blue, green & turquoise quilt bursts with color and impact! What a fun look she created for Summer! All of our campers got to pick out all their own fabrics so these quilts are truly their own! We love to encourage kids to be bold and choose what makes their hearts happy! Sometimes, we're a little worried when they bring up their assortments because as adults, we can't always SEE it. But they always blow us away with the final results! Kids get color like no one else!
 
 
 
We had such a good time sharing our sewing know-how with these young ones! Passing on traditions to younger generations is something we've always been so passionate about at the Cabbage Rose and that's why Kid's Camp is one of our favorite weeks out of the year!
 
Get your little one's creating masterpieces of their own next year! Keep your eyes peeled for info next Spring! Happy Quilting!

Kid's Camp 2014!!!

 
We just got done with another fabulous week of Kid's Camp! These cool and talented kiddos worked all week to create their very own quilt tops, pillowcases & drawstring bags! There's just something so rewarding about seeing a new generation learning sewing skills!

 
 
We had boys and girls in a wide range of ages and just look at how cute their creations are!
 
 
 
Everyone was SEW excited about what they made! I'm pretty sure we've got some sewing lifer's in this group! And what better to get your kids into at such an early age than the ability to make awesome stuff like quilts?!
 
 
 
 
 
 
We're so proud of our students! They all made such cool & colorful designs and picked out all their fabrics themselves! Giving kids the confidence to try new things and sew even more is our favorite thing about Kid's Camp! Seeing their excitement about what they have made and hearing them talk about wanting to make even more is the reason why we do this amazing camp every Summer! It's sew rewarding!! We hope your kiddos join us next year! Or get them started with something simple like our Pillowcase Kits! It's never too soon to start with sewing!
 
MORE PICS COMING SOON!
