    There was another thread about her quilt and she posted to that thread! So she does know about this site.

    It's really hard to put a price on art, ya know???

    But 70,000.............. I guess you have to be super rich :D:D

    I read an article about being wealthy. To simplify it, spending $10 by the average consumer is the same as spending $100 to the well off, $1,000 to the wealthy, and $10,000 to the super rich. The Bill Gates of the world, it would be like spending $70 for the quilt.

    I am very proud that more people are finally beginning to appreciate the hard work that goes into quilting, especially the type of work you have done, GREAT JOB, I feel the lady who purchased this work of art got a bargain
