		<description>Thanks for the good wishes!  I am feeling better but I still cough a lot when I talk for too long or when the drugs start to wear off *grin*

Believe it or not, I think my curriculum will work for a 10-year old, too.  Obviously the sample lesson is geared toward K-2 but I try to offer adaptations for those students who don&#039;t need to start at the &quot;basic&quot; level.  For example, in one lesson the children practice measuring and cutting using paper.  Your 10-year-old could use fabric such as felt instead of the paper.  And lest you think that would be too basic, we had to do measuring and cutting exercises in my college-level sewing class! :)  Now, your 10-year-old may not get into the &quot;story&quot; that introduces the stitches, but I&#039;m thinking that it might inspire you to tell your own story to go along with it.

Truly, the sewing process and the projects in the curriculum span all ages--many of the projects are adapted from all adult books--but I&#039;ve chosen to use language geared for grades 1-4ish.

Good question, thanks for asking!</description>
