teaching kids to sew - handsewing the binding

Day three of sewing camp! First we took a little field trip.....
The girls picked out backing and binding for their quilt tops. Then back to the house where their little "extra" quilts were quilted and bound, ready for them to hand stitch the binding down on the back...

Wow! this was HARD! So glad I had two helpers today to help the girls through this step. They did really well on this tough step. Tomorrow is our last day together...
