Lincoln is intrigued by my sewing machine so a couple of months ago I showed him how it works. Since that day whenever he is at my house he asks, "Sew, please?" He sits on my lap and intently watches my actions and the movement of the machine. The dials and buttons are tempting but with reminders he keeps his fingers away. He is the only reason I have done any sewing this spring or summer. We only stitch a few squares together each time but eventually this quilt will be done, most likely when the weather keeps me inside more often.
I love watching Lincoln learn. I don't expect that sewing will be his thing but I love the way that he watches my hands and the moving parts of the machine as he soaks it all in.
