When you are ready to get her her own machine - do yourself a favor and skip the toy chainstitch thing. My dd got one for christmas when she was 5. I fought with it for 2 hours and dumped it. She pieced her first Twin sized quilt at 6. This year she is getting a very simple Singer for Christmas.

Hi Shnnn ... I live in northern nevada. Are you up here? There are a few of us on the board who live within 40 minutes of each other.
I keep looking at those little janome machines at hancock fabrics to take to quilting classes. They are so light weight. They are on sale again right now. Janome is a great little machine. I had the larger memorycraft janome for a while and it was nice. I sold it because I got a bernina (well... two) But, so of the features are nice on them. The nice thing is the feet are very reasonable too. I bought every foot they made for a fraction of the cost of the bernina feet.
