I did some sewing in HS. Did nothing during my 20's and picked up quilting in my early 30's. Now I am about to teach my 9 year old how to sew. I too believe that we get smarting in the 30's and want to pick up on what we have been missing. Good for her for wanted to start and it sounds like your are going to get her going in the right direction with the Christmas Gifts :thumbup:
