This thing was a beast! I made it for the lady who gave me her sewing machine. I designed it and she gave me the color scheme.

I named it sunlit path because it looks like a sunset, and the alternating way the blocks are set kind of looks like a path to me.

So what do you think?

The whole quilt laid out on my king bed

The woman I made this for, won't take the quilt because I won't make pillow cases to match without being compensated for it.

We agreed to her giving me the machine and I make her a quilt. No money exchanged. There was nothing in our communications mentioned about a pillow case clause.

Now when I email her to tell her that it's done, she asked me if the pillowcases were done. I told her I didn't remember agreeing to any pillowcases, and now she told me she won't take the quilt and is angry that I "jipped her" and is accusing me of being dishonest.

:twisted: :twisted: :twisted: :twisted: :twisted: :twisted:

I'm so angry! GRRRRRRRRrrr

I have enough scraps of material left over to make some babydoll pillowcases. I should make them, and deliver them wtih the quilt to her. There's your pillowcases! LOL

Sorry for the rant, but I'm just so frustrated. I pour my heart and soul into making quilts, and now one isn't being accepted because she can't milk it for all it's worth, just outrages me!!!!

I know I can gain some sympathy here...lol
