I had another apprentice over tonight. Amber helps my husband and I teach 2- and 3-year-olds in our church Sunday school program. She is a single college student who lives about 15 minutes away. I told her she could invite herself over any time and suggested Tuesdays as a good day for me. So she invited herself over tonight (that only took 2 days to happen!). We were texting the past couple days, and I asked her if she'd be interested in learning how to piece and quilt. She said YES!!
So tonight she picked out a pattern for a table runner (which is a great size to start and FINISH for a first project). She got all the pieces cut out and pieced most of the blocks. It is a relatively simple pattern, but she is soooo excited to be making it! In the excitement of the session, I neglected to take any pictures. Maybe next time!
I also mostly finished the September month by month quilt. I relinquished my sewing machine to Amber when she arrived. Another 10 minutes, and I would have had it completely finished. Here it is so far:

Love that little "Sept." block. Very fun!! Good of you to mentor a new quilter.
Your sense of humor amazes me! Jogger, for sure! Love it! : ) It's beautiful, BTW. And the Sept. block is so cute! How do you choose the theme for the blocks?
