check with the local quilt shop or quilt guild (the shop will know how to contact them) and give her a promissory note to cover the cost of a guest speaker scheduled to come to your area, or to cover the cost of a quilt retreat (guilds usually have at least one retreat a year). The cost for a retreat in my area is about $120 to $150, and classes by a guest speaker run between 50 and 75$ each class.
