None of my 5 daughters learned to sew. They were not interested. Five of my granddaughters love to sew with me, some more than others. Here is a picture of granddaughter, Holly's 2nd quilt. She is 12.

I did all the cutting, and bound it. She did all the piecing and the quilting on the long arm. We pinned it on together.

When I told her that she had to quilt it on grandma's big machine, her eyes got so wide. She did great. I told her she could just move it anywhere, even write her name. She loved that and put it in a couple of times.

I have always said someone needs to know how to use all these machines to inherit them. i have lots of prospects. LOL
