I agree with Patrice on this. Maybe you could start a quilting bee at work and teach these individuals a new skill. That way its a win-win. That way you'll have time to do your stuff and teach them a very simple block to do. You could even charge a nominal fee if you wanted to. They buy the cloth, batting and backing and you give them a starters pattern.

You do need to take this as a very nice compliment. If your work was shabby you wouldn't be getting this requests. I've quilted for almost 16 yrs and still don't have one for my own room. Have the material though! :lol: :lol:
