Not sure what I will do yet - depends on how my other projects come along. It is the first time my DH has done this and he IS encouraging me to quilt-lol.
When my husband wants me to do something for someone that I'm not personally eager to make a quilt for, I make him buy the fabric, and I estimate generously how much fabric I need, so I can keep the leftovers. Depends on what way you guys deal with your money whether that would work for you or not, I guess.

I know the Tigger only fabric is out there cuz I have a piece somewhere. Hmm, unless I recently gave it to my SIL for baby quilting. Anyway, it can be found. Hugs and smiles. My DH would be in deep doodoo if he ever made a commitment for me without talking to me about it first, LOL. And if he did that the D wouldn't mean dear. LOL.

Yes, I believe this is correct.....it is basically impossible to find a fabric like this with only one character without purchasing excessive yards to fussy cut. Maybe your husband would enjoy quilting this for her. After 37 years of marriage neither myself or my husband would commit each other to something without discussing it between ourselves before we would commit to another person. Also you need to let her know exactly how much materials alone (fabrics, thread, batting & backing) would cost and your fees for your services before you even begin to start this project.

This is what I have found to be true. DD loves tigger and it is really difficult to find him without the others :(
