Cute bag! I'd go through my stash and decide what I REALLY didn't want to be cut, and let her choose from the rest. It's great she's so interested and it's good to get experience, but didn't lots of us start out using actual, true SCRAPS? if nothing else, it will develop her creative and inventive side, rather than just having to pick out beautiful new fabrics. I wish her the best - it's a great age to start sewing!

I see a next generation quilter/pattern designer!
Yep.. I think I'd figure out a way to pay her for house chores with FQ's...lol
Or.. an outing to a quilt store but head for the 50% of bins first. I always check the bargain bins first. Some of my FINEST flannel backs have been found in bargain bins.
I couldn't get my daughter interested as a youngster. I thin it's GREAT!

You have a beautiful daughter with a beatiful bag. Be glad and very proud she wants to follow your hearts desire. Does she get an allowance for household chores? If not, good time to start - a small portion will go to LQS trips so she can develop her own stash.
