I love that! Walter turning hand wheels....keeping mitts off tension dials! I just had that talk with my Zoe...told her that "Nana will be very mad is she touches any dials or buttons or stuff on my sewing machines." She asked " Will I get a swish on the bum?" I almost laughed...but with a 2 1/2 year old you never know what will come out of the mouth...told her that she might get one.
