I made your tent for my granddaughter and it is now getting lots of use. I love to make quilts, clothes, hats, costumes, whatever she wants me to make. She is already, at the age of three, becoming very interested in fabric.

Hi, Sally, Jan Myhre here! Mary Ann Larson's cousin. I'd love to win this book for my daughter-in-law. She could whip up some of these cool designs for the granddaughter's backyard play time. Hope all is well with you and yours.

I am a new grandma and it looks like your new book has some really fun things I could sew for my grandson. I have only made kids quilts and pillowcases in the past but would love to Borden my horizons now that my kids are grown and I have a little more time. Besides grand children always appreciate things more than your own children did, because grandma made it especially for you.

I have been admiring your book at a quilt shop. Now that the grandchildren of my friends are happening I would love to sew so many fun things for them. Everything in your book is wonderful for a child. I love to create anything funky and fun for children.

I've made an apron and tutu fur my daughter... The quilts I've made her have been much easier!

So far I've been making toys and a few outfits for my 1 yr old Granddaughter who's living here with us and her parents. I'm looking forward to making her more things like dress up outfits and other fun things to keep her busy and having fun as she gets older.

I'm sorry I won't be able to tune into your guest appearance today although I'd MUCH rather do that than the root canal I'll be 'enjoying' instead at that time. Have a great time on the show. He always has fun with his interviews.

LOVE nature-inspired projects! For kids, enjoy sewing mini quilts w/minke or anything with texture and aprons to help in the kitchen! Thanks. Faith.

This looks fun. The granddaughters will love the outdoor projects.

Sewing for children is always enjoyable! I love aprons made out of oil cloth so they are waterproof. Can't wait to read how to make the wide brim hats, cargo vests and tepees!!

I like to sew matching aprons for girls and their dolls, as well as many outfits to fit the American Girl dolls. I would love to sew from your giveaway book for my three young grandsons. I have also sewn quilts for them.
