    this is kind of an old picture- i just happened to come across it and share it- she is now 15-
    the only thing osha rules said the kids could not do was use a rotory cutter...they had to cut with scissors-or have an adult cut for them. this was taken in the sewing school almost 6 years ago....we've come a long way since then
