I set the machine to "slow" so it didn't take off on her (Thank you Pfaff and Janome). We didn't want needle punctures either. She is ecastic with her 1st effort and is impatient to start on her next sewing project (duting school holidays visits). She also had to put up with her little sister (4 years) who wanted to do it as well. Her mother assures me she is urging a life long friend (Dominic, )male) to take up sewing so she will have a sewing companion

    what a nice first quilt and a beautiful granddaughter.


    This is my GD Kate's first. She was 11, using the Jem Gold I'd given her. I quilted and bound it for her.
    How colorful and fun! These gals are going to make beautiful quilts someday. They've got a great start!
