No-Sew Kids Quilts

Endless entertainment for creative five-year-olds:

1. Take lots of Mommy’s scraps.  She has over 100 pounds of them and can certainly spare a few.

2. And add in a glue stick and some cardboard.

3. Ta-da!

The flower is by far my favorite.

Watch out Houston Market 2025!

    great idea…might have to let my Elly do this..she usually steals my jelly rolls and other precuts…tries to sleep with them and everything. I think this would be good for her.

    Love the flower your daughter made! Here is a must-check-out post for you with a related idea (not my blog or idea, just sharing the goodness). I can vouch for its success in our house as it is a favorite activity and something the kids can do alongside me while sewing. Great for using up some scraps, too, especially the little bits. I made a boy and girl version and the boy has become all types of super heroes, robots, bad guys, etc. Very fun and creative.
