Quilting
















Kyler watched his sister work on a couple of quilts and he wanted to make his own quilt, he was so excited! We went to the store and he picked out the material, took it up to the lady and told her how much he needed so she could cut the material and then paid for the material all by himself. I got home from work and he was putting the quilt on the quilt frames, and he was doing a pretty good job of it too. I helped him finish and showed him a couple of stitches to try so he could start to tie his quilt. It took him a few days and he had it done. We then made a short trip to Santaquin to Grandma Goodall's, he wanted to see if she would bind it for him. We walked in the kitchen and her and Grandpa were sitting at the table, Kyler took out his quilt and showed it to them while his Dad proceeded to tell them the story of his quilt. I looked at Grandpa and he had tears in his eyes...and it didn't take long for Mom to have the same effect (people crying does that to Mom's you know). So Grandma was excited and said she would be happy to bind it for him. A few days later we went and picked it up. He has been smiles ever since. We are so PROUD of him!
