teach a 10 year old how to begin

xonic

I want to teach my daughter to stitch.
but what pattern should I use for her.

threadbare

keep it simple, not too many colours and fairly small to begin with, find a cross stitch card making magazine, theyre usually small and brightly coloured :)

My mom started me with a small kit, i think it made it easier for me to start off because everything was in the kit so i didnt have to worry about not having any of the stuff i needed.

Let the HER choose a small kit, something that interest her will be best in the long run.

A small easy kit is the way to go. Let her choose something that interests her... You can guide her as she progresses...

My daughter starts with a little butterfly Pattern and sew it on a bag

There are lots of small, inexpensive kits out there.  I agree with having her choose something simple and letting her go at it!  Good luck to her!

The first project my daughter stitched was a stamped baby bib kit for her newborn cousin.  She was so proud when she saw the baby in it!
