Since she is getting free dance lessons for this she should be
contributing in some way. She'll appreciate the work involved for the
lessons. I personally don't believe in handing everything to children
gratis and that's what you would be doing if she didn't do some of the
labor intensive but less skilled work. Add the time. The work is being
done and supervised by you. You are the one responsible for the final
product no mater who does the work.

She would be taking the lessons no matter what, she is very good at
it, and her parents are budgeting for the lessons. I just like that
I'm able to help out, and it *may* lead to a commission for making
custom kilts, which I would really love!

See, I just knew all you sewing folks would understand! ;-) I was
just concerned about how the dance instructor might perceive it if she
learns about DGD's contribution (and knowing children, she just mayl).

Ok, I was just concerned that the dance instructor is hiring "me", and
I am planning to hand off this to DGD, without sharing that
information with the instructor. I guess, if I put DGD on the
"payroll" it will not offend.... ;-)

As long as you share a portion of the "proceeds" with your "assistant,"
why would the teacher care?

Indeed! And in this case the "assistant" will be getting *all* of the
proceeds, in the form of free(ish) lessons. ;-)
