Patti, that is awesome! Get her busy with those quilts and she'll have something to do at college to keep her out of trouble! lol.
Heather - what an awesome offer you've made.
Have a blessed day everyone.

What a wonderful way to bond a family. Heather you are a sweetheart to offer this machine.

Yes, she and I have a wonderful relationship. Sometimes I think I am more of a mom to her than her own mom. When she needs help with anything, she calls me or her dad. I was a bit worried about what kind of relationship we would have when I came into this family. She was only 10. Now at 18, we are very good friends.

Heather, thankyou for your very generous offer!!! She does have her own machine. Two C'mas's ago, DH and I added to money my mom sent to buy her a gift, and bought her a fairly basic machine. Even so, it still has several fancy stitches. With her artistic eye, she already has played some with them for quilting.

She is a little concerned about where will she keep the machine at college, and when and where will she be able to use it. We have talked about possibilities and she is now quite keen to take it with her. Even if she can only sew for short periods, it will be a relaxing/stress reliever for her. She is taking bio-medical engineering, so a pretty heavy slate!!!

What a dear step-mom you are to bond so well with your step-daughter. Thanks for taking the time to create another ADDICT like us. With her class load at college, she'll defintiely need her sewing as an outlet for stress!! It will keep her grounded!!
