She has her own Janome. Both of my girls have their own Janome Quilter Companions and their own little sewing tables in the sewing room. She just usually prefers to make those microwaveable rice bags, but now I think she may be coming around to the quilting side of things, lol.

All children do better with 'hands-on' than with abstractions. Lovely designs.

Get her to help you design some blocks, it takes math to divide it up into the right size segments, and how many blocks to get the right size quilt. Tell her she did a fabulous job on your arrangement. She got it right the first time. That's hard for us to do.
