This last Thanksgiving Grandma Whitworth taught the girls how to make a quilt! Savannah got it in her head that she wanted to make a BIG quilt for herself, and when that girl gets something on her mind it usually happens. Grandma Karen was nice enough to spend a lot of her time with us over Thanksgiving going step by step through the process of making a quilt with Savannah. We about wore grandma out dragging her all around town shopping for fabric and supplies. Then when Savannah got all her stuff grandma helped her put it all together. Savannah did most of the work herself and grandma helped straighten out a few mistakes. Then at the last minute when it was all done we all gave a sigh of relief just to hear that Sydnie wanted to make one too! Well Savannah was all for it! She said "I will show you how to do it" and she did! They used all of grandmas old scrapes of fabric she brought with her because Sydnie did not care at all what it looked like and most certainly did not want to go shopping. Those two girls stayed up till wee hours of the morning laughing their heads off about how funny this quilt would be! It was awesome and they did finish it and they both use them daily. They love their quilts, what a special memory - thanks grandma!
