Oh, you will enjoy that. My daughter and I designed and sewed hers together. It was great. My daughter went on to do alterations in a bridal/formal gown shop. I still remember when she was mad at me (she was 12) when I told her she had to learn to sew because it was a skill that had been passed down to me for generations and I wanted to keep it going. She had run into a difficult problem and had to keep ripping out this same sleeve 3 times. I told her she didn't have to do anything with sewing when she was an adult. Needless to say, she got through that difficult sleeve and went on to sew her clothing, etc. I am giving her my 1975 Bernina 830 tomorrow. It is the machine she learned to sew on.
