oh no perhaps you should suggest you would like something.. a runner , an apron, a lap quilt and she can pick from most of your stash.. for Christmas. cost her nothing you see? might be a good incentive. I am not sure however how old your dd is so..mine was 19/20 before it hit her now she is wanting her machine and to sew curtains for her new place and well she needs it so she can make holiday things.. lol she has inherit the holiday bug from her mother I am afraid. its highly contagious apparently (only the woman of my side of the family).
