I set up a sewing area for Keegan in the guest bedroom. He loved it. He didn't understand the quiltmaking steps so he did the quilting first. I think Keegan found that using the Gammill quilting machine is easier than using the sewing machine. Keegan quilted his item. Then he appliqued "ghosts" on his piece. Then I helped with binding but I made him topsew the binding onto his piece.
The pink in the upper left hand corner is the ghost tree. If you shake the ghost tree, the ghosts fall out. The ghosts are the other small pink pieces that are appliqued onto the green background.
I tried to have Keegan write his name and date on the back of his piece so that he would know when he made his creation. He was having a hard time with the marker so I wrote it in smaller text on the back. He will still have a reference, it will just not be in his hand this time.
