I didn't have her help cutting -- she probably would have done fine but I am still a bit nervous of the blade.

She all of the piecing for the top except the last 3 big row seams. It went OK, but her quarter inch got quite scant in a few places. I secretly sewed over those few places when she went to bed

In the corner of the feather I also signed her name with a heart since it was gift -- she was really proud of the project.

I have several projects in the works to spark my two girls sewing interest -- pillowcases, purses, aprons, simple doll quilts and anything else easy I can think of. For Easter instead of candy in a basket I gave them each a sewing basket.
