It is fun to see her face light up when she learns a new "trick" about how to put the pieces of fabric together.
That is wonderful! I wish I had a granddaughter that I could teach to quilt. I have 2 grandsons that I adore, but I don't think they will give up baseball and basketball for quilting. lol
