Why can't she do it on her own? My mom quilted, but never taught me. I taught myself to quilt just by reading books and blogs-and I'm still learning new techniques from blog posts. There are plenty of tutorials on the internet to learn how to make a quilt from start to finish. If she runs into trouble, you should help her out, but she should make the quilt herself. A simple quilt isn't difficult to do. If she can read and follow directions then she can make a quilt. Plus, the new wife may not like a quilt that you had your hand in making. She needs to do this on her own then later you can work together on a quilt just for your daughter to enjoy.
