    This so sweet. A grandmother so patient teaching a granddaughter to sew. I remember the days.

    Heartwarming. I’m preparing to spend a week at camp with my granddaughters and am busy packing the hand sewing projects. 🙂

    That surely captures the teaching stage with love.

    I love the juxtaposition of the old, gnarled hands and the plump little young ones. The concentration on the little girl’s face and the calm, patient look on the grandmother’s just warms my heart. Thanks!
