I recently had craft day with granddaughters. They wanted to make Pocket Purses using my embroidery machine. I took my Janome 11000 to their house and they each made a Pocket Purse using Anita Goodesign's Projects Pocket Purse designs. They had fun making these purses. The design is a in-the-hoop design. Even the zipper is added in the embroidery hoop.
Here GD#1 shows her Pocket Purse while GD#2 used the embroidery machine. She uses her purse to hold her IPOD. We had a great time using the embroidery machine. The project was so simple that they were able to complete the purse with little supervision. They are so familiar with computers that a computerized machine doesn't intimidate them. Fun time!

So nice you have some GD time and are teaching them to sew. The little purses are wonderful!
What a wonderful post, Pam! Your granddaughters are growing up so creatively and it's such a special sharing time, too!
They are so adorable...the purses too:-) What a fun way to spend the day and create great memories too!
For some reason I thought the machine would be too big to carry around. It's great you are teaching the girls how to sew. I never learned, wish I had and now don't have the patience to be bothered with anything other than simple hand sewing. :) Wishing you a wonderful weekend. Tammy
Great you are spending crafting time with them.
