I think she did a great job. She is a natural and listened and followed my directions to the letter. Wow! That was nice. She was able to use my Pfaff 2040. I set it on my typing table and we put the foot peddle on a cushion. Putting the foot peddle on a cushion was a great idea because she could not press down hard enough to make the machine go too fast. We had a lovely day. I also taught her how to braid and how to crochet. I was exhausted!

    Beautiful quilt! It is fantastic you are teaching Hanna how to sew and quilt at such a young age, it is a skill she will be able to use for the rest of her life. :D
