that is wonderful! my youngest granddaughter started sewing/quilting when she was 4- and she is a fabric (freak!) she's 11 now- and has quite a stash---since she was 3 she would manage to get at least a fat quarter more if she could talk her parents into it---every single time they enter a store that sells fabric---she loves fabric! and even though i've always let the girls have pretty much free-reign in my stash as long as they use it-don't waste it---heaven forbid anyone (borrow) something from her stash!!! it is so good to see youngsters interested in being creative..the 2 older girls have made a quilt or two-but enjoy creating purses & other things more---the youngest- she is a quilter-
when she was 4 and made the first one we even tipped a dresser on its side for her to stand on at the long-arm table & she quilted it herself....the only thing she doesn't get to do is use a rotory cutter- she has to use scissors or ask an adult to cut for her....everything else she does.
