If she wants to quilt, by all means let her. I learned to quilt on bed-size quilts sitting beside my mother, grandmother and aunts. we quilted on "every-day quilts" & as soon as we could do small enough stitches & even stitches we could then quilt on "fancy quilts". And yes, once I learned how, if my stitches were too big, my mother made me take them out & do it again.
